The stringency, and the enforcement procedures, vary in the different Member States. For example, in Britain, prosecution is a last resort, because it is very costly and the outcome may be uncertain. But the authorities can be VERY persuasive. Non-compliant products are confiscated, and the thought of a future involving a watch on every new product introduction easily convinces manufacturers and importers that co-operation is the best policy.

Is there someplace where we can find enforcement actions that have been taken against companies for placing products on the market that don't fully meet the applicable Directives? I am most interested in the EMC, LVD, MD, and R&TTE Directives. Thank you. Jim Hulbert _____
