Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
Directive 1999/5/EC (“the Directive”) of the European Parliament and of the Council on radio equipment and telecommunications terminal equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity provides for the essential requirements, the procedures for conformity assessment, the placing on the market and the bringing into service in respect of such equipment.
Pursuant to the Directive (which was largely implemented in the United Kingdom by the Radio Equipment and Telecommunications Terminal Equipment Regulations 2000 (S.I. 2000/730), wireless telegraphy equipment is no longer required to be marked in accordance with section 85 of the Telecommunications Act 1984 (c. 12), and this Order makes a consequential amendment to the Wireless Telegraphy (Cordless Telephone Apparatus) (Marking and Restriction) Order 1999 (S.I. 1999/2934; “the Principal Order”) (article 3(c)).
In addition, this Order provides that the restrictions in article 4(1) of the Principal Order in respect of manufacture, sale, possession and importation (“the restrictions”) do not apply after 30th April 2000 to CT1 or extended range CT1 apparatus (as defined in article 3 of this Order; “CT apparatus”) if CT apparatus complies with UK Radio Interface Requirement IR 2011. The restrictions also do not apply to CT apparatus which complies with Part II of Schedule 4 to the unamended 1999 Regulations (as defined in article 3(a)(ii)) prior to 1st May 2000 and in respect of which any of the restrictions relating to the CT apparatus has occurred prior to 8th April 2001 (article 3(b)).
