Note 1

Generally the date of cessation of presumption of conformity will be the date of withdrawal
(‘dow’), set by the European Standardisation Organisation, but attention of users of these stand-
ards is drawn to the fact that in certain exceptional cases this can be otherwise.

Note 2.1 The new (or amended) standard has the same scope as the superseded standard. On the date
stated, the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential
requirements of the directive.

Note 2.2 The new standard has a broader scope than the superseded standard. On the date stated the
superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential requirements
of the directive.

C 142/40

EN

Official Journal of the European Union

11.6.2005

Note 2.3 The new standard has a narrower scope than the superseded standard. On the date stated the
(partially) superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the essential
requirements of the directive for those products that fall within the scope of the new standard.
Presumption of conformity with the essential requirements of the directive for products that still
fall within the scope of the (partially) superseded standard, but that do not fall within the scope
of the new standard, is unaffected.

In case of amendments, the referenced standard is EN CCCCC:YYYY, its previous amendments, if
any, and the new, quoted amendment. The superseded standard (column 3) therefore consists of
EN CCCCC:YYYY and its previous amendments, if any, but without the new quoted amendment.
On the date stated, the superseded standard ceases to give presumption of conformity with the
essential requirements of the directive.

NOTE:

— Any information concerning the availability of the standards can be obtained either from the European
Standardisation Organisations or from the national standardisation bodies of which the list is annexed
to Directive 98/34/EC (1) of the European Parliament and Council amended by Directive 98/48/EC (2).

— Publication of the references in the Official Journal of the European Union does not imply that the stand-

ards are available in all the Community languages.

— This list replaces all the previous lists published in the Official Journal of the European Union. The

Commission ensures the updating of this list.
