These Regulations amend the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2008 (S.I. 2008/37) (“the principal Regulations”), which implement European Parliament and Council Directive 2002/95/EC on the Restriction of the Use of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment (OJ L 37, 13.3.2003, p. 19). Regulation 2(3) and (4)(a) correct drafting errors in the principal Regulations.
