Hello Mike,
     
     From what I have heard, this applies only to the clearance of stocked 
     products that were in the EU before January 1, 1996. However, this 
     relaxation is not being accepted by all EU Member States. The UK might 
     be one Member State that is allowing this. Regardless, products coming 
     into the EU after January 1, 1996 are not subject to any relaxation 
     from the EMC Directive.
     
     Regards,
     Ron Wellman

 maybe rather administrative delay due to lack of experience and 
testing facilities, but you should not count on a fixed period of 12 month.
