The legislation has to be reviewed every 4 years, so given that RoHS hit the streets in 2006, it makes 2010 the likely date for the current proposed amendments to be rolled in.
2017 would likely stand for the removal of some exemptions, so giving mfrs plenty of time to make the necessary adjustments. Chris. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Gordon,Ian Sent: 14 May 2009 09:40 To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Differences between CE Mark legislations and non CE Mark legislations All Does anyone have any idea as to when the RoHS directive might be amended to include the requirement to use it as part of the CE marking process? I saw a date of 2017 mentioned for removal of some of the exceptions to the directive - is this the sort of time frame that might be applicable for the revision?
