I am wondering when references to the old LVD in Declarations of Conformity were officially incorrect.
This seems to be a tricky question. Per Article 15 the directive entered into force the 20th day after publication in the OJ (Dec 27 2006), and with that the old Directive was officially repealed (per Article 14). But the Directive also contains a statement in Article 14 "References made to the repealed Directive shall be read in accordance with the correlation table in Annex VI" which might mean that references to the old directive in a DoC are not "illegal." Of course, since this is a directive and not a regulation, each member state must enact their own legislation. Oddly, I find no reference in the Directive to a date by which member states must have their own legislation in place. Any ideas on when (if) DoC references to 73/23/EEC were officially incorrect?
