These Regulations amend the Motor Vehicles (EC Type Approval) Regulations 1998 (“the 1998 Regulations”).

Regulation 2 inserts a reference to Directive 2002/78/EC at the appropriate place in the table in Schedule 1 to the 1998 Regulations, thereby implementing that Directive for the purposes of EC type approval procedures.
OJNo. L81, 18.3.1998, p. 1.
