Whereas:
(1) The request for exemption submitted by Italy on 18 December 2000, which reached the Commission on 21 December 2000, contained the information required by Article 8(2)(c) of Directive 70/156/EEC. The request concerns the on-board diagnostics (OBD) requirements for two class M1 types of compressed natural gas fuelled vehicle.
(2) The reasons given in the request, according to which such vehicle types meet the requirements of Annex IV to Directive 70/156/EEC, apart from Council Directive 70/220/EEC of 20 March 1970 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to measures to be taken against air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles(3), as last amended by Commission Directive 1999/102/EC(4), are well founded.

(6) The measures provided for by this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Adaptation to Technical Progress set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,
The request submitted by Italy for an exemption concerning the production and placing on the market of two class M1 types of vehicle powered by compressed natural gas, with regard to their OBD requirements, is hereby approved.
The validity of the approvals granted in accordance with this Decision shall take effect on 1 January 2001 and shall expire on 31 December 2003.
