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

Regulation 2 amends the definition of the Framework Directive to include Commission Directive 2001/116/EC, which consolidates certain amendments to the Framework Directive, Council Directive 70/156/EEC, and in particular provides new annexes for use by manufacturers and approval authorities in applying for and granting type approvals.

Regulation 3 inserts references in the table in Schedule 1 to recent EC Directives, thereby implementing them for the purposes of EC type approval procedures. The item numbers in the table follow the order set out in Annex IV to the Framework Directive relating to the various vehicle components or features of construction covered by separate Directives.

In line with the 1998 Regulations, the use of the symbol * denotes that the Directive specified is a Commission Directive, and the use of the symbol † denotes that the Directive specified is a Directive of the Council and the European Parliament.

This Explanatory Note incorporates the Transition Note that would otherwise have been provided separately.

Copies of the EC Directives referred to in these Regulations can be obtained from The Stationery Office.
