Hi Jasmine, The following paragraph is taken from "Guide to the implementation of directives based on the New Approach and the Global Approach".
2.4 Transitional Period After the transitional period, products manufactured before or during this period, in line with the system to be repealed, may no longer be placed on the Community market. In accordance with the safety or other objectives of the new directive, a product – which is placed on the market before the end of the transitional period – should be allowed to be put into service after that date if it was ready for use when placed on the market. Otherwise, it may only be put into service after that date if it fully complies with the provisions of the directive. I would interpret the above that products manufactured and place on the market (not put into service yet) before 1 March 2007, are still allow to be sold. The same product if it is to be transferred from the manufacturer or his authorised representative in the community to importer/distributer/customer/user, has to meet the new revised standard (might have to redesign if it do not meet the revised standard).
