Commission Decision

of 11 April 2005

establishing ecological criteria and the related assessment and verification requirements for the award of the Community eco-label to personal computers

(notified under document C(2005) 1024)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2005/341/EC) (repealed)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 17 July 2000 on a revised Community eco-label award scheme(1), and in particular the second subparagraph of Article 6(1) thereof,

After consulting the European Union Eco-Labelling Board,

Whereas:

(1) Under Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000, the Community eco-label may be awarded to a product possessing characteristics which enable it to contribute significantly to improvements in relation to key environmental aspects.

(2) Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000 provides that specific eco-label criteria, drawn up on the basis of the criteria drafted by the European Union Eco-Labelling Board, are to be established according to product groups.

(3) It also provides that the review of eco-label criteria, as well as of the assessment and verification requirements related to those criteria, is to take place in good time before the end of the period of validity of the criteria specified for the product group concerned.

(4) It is appropriate, in order to reflect developments on the market, to revise the ecological criteria established by Commission Decision 2001/686/EC of 22 August 2001 establishing ecological criteria for the award of the Community eco‐label to personal computers(2).

(5) Furthermore, in order to specify that servers are excluded, it is necessary to modify the definition of the product group laid down in that Decision.

(6) In the interests of clarity, Decision 2001/686/EC should therefore be replaced.

(7) The revised ecological criteria and the related assessment and verification requirements should be valid for a period of four years.

(8) It is appropriate to allow a transitional period of not more than 12 months for producers whose products have been awarded the eco-label before the date of notification of this Decision or who have applied for such an award before that date, so that they have sufficient time to adapt their products to comply with the revised criteria and requirements.

(9) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee instituted by Article 17 of Regulation (EC) No 1980/2000,
