Whereas the request submitted by Luxembourg on 6 November 1997, which was received by the Commission on 10 November 1997, was accompanied by a report containing the information required by Article 8(2)(c); whereas the request concerns one type of gas discharge lamp for four types of headlamps;
Whereas the information provided by Luxembourg shows that the technology and principle embodied in these new types of gas discharge lamps and headlamps do not meet the requirements of Community regulations; whereas, however, the descriptions of the tests, the results thereof and the action taken in order to ensure road safety are satisfactory and ensure a level of safety equivalent to that of the lamps and headlamps covered by the requirements of the Directives in force and, in particular, of Council Directive 76/761/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to motor-vehicle headlamps which function as main-beam and/or dippedbeam headlamps and to incandescent electric filament lamps for such headlamps (3), as last amended by Commission Directive 89/517/EEC (4);
Whereas these new types of gas discharge lamps and these new types of headlamps meet the requirements of UNECE (United Nations Economic Commission for Europe) Regulation No 98; whereas it is therefore justified to allow the two items covered by the request for exemption, i. e. the type of gas discharge lamp and the four types of headlamps fitted with this type of lamp, to benefit from the granting of EC type-approval;
Whereas the Community Directives concerned will be amended in order to enable gas discharge lamps embodying this new technology and headlamps fitted with such lamps to be placed on the market;
Whereas the measure provided for by this Decision is in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on Adaptation to Technical Progress set up by Directive 70/156/EEC,
