EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Instrument and does not purport to be a legal interpretation.)

These Regulations are made to give effect, in so far as necessary, to Directive 2011/17/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 repealing Council Directives 71/317/EEC, 71/347/EEC, 71/349/EEC, 74/148/EEC, 75/33/EEC, 76/765/EEC, 76/766/EEC and 86/217/EEC regarding metrology.

The changes allow for revocation of the measures that were adopted to give effect to Directive 71/349/EEC which provided for an optional harmonised European system of calibration and EC verification of tanks of inland waterways and coastal vessels.

Regulations 3 and 4 provide that the revocation will not affect the legality of any EC verifications carried out or calibration certification issued prior to 30 June 2011.
