These Regulations amend the Motor Vehicles (EC Type Approval) Regulations 1998 ("the 1998 Regulations"). The 1998 Regulations implement Council Directives 70/156/EEC and 98/14/EC which provide that Member States must set up a system for granting EC type approval for certain light passenger vehicles.
Regulation 2 inserts a reference to a new EC Directive by adding a new item 58, which covers pedestrian protection, in the Table.
This Explanatory Note incorporates the Transposition Note that would otherwise have been provided separately.
Copies of the EC Directive referred to in these Regulations can be obtained from the Stationery Office.
