Patty,
You've hit on the bad and the good (respectively) that also caught my eye. Also in the bad column, they seem to propose that instructions AND safety information be translated rather than just safety information. Regards, Lauren From: Knudsen, Patricia [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Monday, September 17, 2012 1:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [PSES] Speaking of the LVD Revision. This one is a bit vague: Amendment 11 Proposal for a directive Article 3 - paragraph 2 a (new) Text proposed by the Commission Amendment 2a. Where applicable, electrical equipment not intended for professional use may be made available on the market only if it is constructed in such way that it can be easily used and accessed by persons with disabilities. Does this mean a PC will need to have a braille keyboard option or voice-recognition software installed before it can ship? At least they made putting an image of the device on the DoC an option instead of a requirement.

FYI - The LVD is in the process of being recast to align it with the New Legislative Framework. The Commission's legislative proposal for the recast can be found here http://eur-lex.europa.eu/LexUriServ/LexUriServ.do?uri=COM:2011:0773:FIN: EN:PDF The Parliament's draft report on the Commission's proposal can be found here http://www.europarl.europa.eu/sides/getDoc.do?pubRef=-//EP//NONSGML+COMP ARL+PE-488.068+01+DOC+PDF+V0//EN&language=EN Some of the amendments proposed by Parliament (in draft) seem reasonable. Others, no so much.
