History

Partially repealed by Directive 98/13/EC. Amends directives 87/404/EEC, 88/378/EEC, 89/106/EEC, 89/336/EEC, 89/392/EEC, 89/686/EEC, 90/384/EEC, 90/385/EEC, 90/396/EEC, 91/263/EEC, 92/42/EEC and 73/23/EEC. Source: Office for Official Publications of the European Communities. Only European Community's legislation printed in the Official Journal of the European Communities is deemed to be authentic. European Parliament voted in favour of the Construction Products Regulation (CPR) on 18 January 2011. Normally EU Regulations enter into force 20 days after publication in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU), however, many of the provisions of the CPR will not apply until 1 July 2013 to allow for a transition period, when it will repeal and replace the Construction Products Directive 89/106/EEC (as amended by 1993/68/EEC - the CPD).
