Hello Jim,
Just visit the Safety Link <www.safetylink.com>, drop down to the "Safety
Articles, FAQs, MRAs, etc" subsection and the third link there, titled,
"Guide to the Implementation of Directives Based On A New Approach and
Global Approach" will take you to a website with this document in a
variety of formats. Or, to shorten the process, once at the Safety Link,
just search on the term "Implementation"
Note that the above document, issued in 1999, replaces "Certif 98/1 Draft"
also known as the Blue Guide.
Regards, Art Michael, Editor - Int'l Product Safety News
