Gene,

A correction - "31 December 2009", not "31 December 2010".

Alternatively visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_Measure_Directive
which catalogues the various EU directives.  At this point I must declare an
interest - I am guilty of writing the first half of the article (but not the
second half).

Subject: [USMA:46581] Labeling Laws of EU Member States


EU Directive 2009/3/EC (of 2009 March 11, on units of measurement) states in
Article 2:

"1. Member States shall adopt and publish no later than 31 December 2010,
the laws, regulations and administrative provision necessary to comply with
this Directive.  They shall forthwith communicate to the Commission the text
of these measures.  They shall apply these measures from 1 January 2010."

I have just spent several hours searching for these laws at EU Lex and at
OIML with no success.

Have any of you found some of these laws, or even one of them?
(We have the new laws for Great Britain which continue to allow
supplementary indications.)

Gene.
