One of the main drivers for the review of the directives is the EU’s New Legislation Framework (NLF). The framework targets the future product harmonization legislation and CE marking in Europe by laying down the general guidelines and detailed procedures for conformity assessment. The need to improve the overall coherence and consistency, notification process, conformity assessment procedures, CE marking and market surveillance have led to a package of measures known as NLF. It consists of the Decision No. 768/2008/EC and Regulations (EC) No. 764/2008 and No. 764/2008 entering into force January 1, 2010. These new measures made it necessary to revise the existing directives and to draft and release new directives including the RED to bring them in line with the new legislation.
