I think it's because the compiler must be subject to EU law, or that of
a Member State, but the digital document can be stored anywhere as long
as it is reasonably accessible.

Hello folks. Hope you are all enjoying the festive season thus far!
I was wondering if any of you knew the rationale behind requirement #2
in the Machinery Directive and why the other directives do not have
this? (as you can see, this is over & above the authorized rep (#10)
signing the DoC).
Excerpt below:
/A. EC DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY OF THE MACHINERY
/
/
/
/*_2. name and address of the person authorised to compile the
technical file, who must be established in the Community;_*
/
/
/
/10. the identity and signature of the person empowered to draw up the
declaration on behalf of the manufacturer or his authorised
representativ/e.
It's odd because in Annex VII, in section 2, it states:
/_The technical file does not have to be located in the territory of
the Community, nor does it have to be permanently available in
material form. However, it must be capable of being assembled and made
available within a period of time commensurate with its complexity by
the person designated in the EC declaration of conformity._/
So, a European must compile it but he can store it somewhere in i.e.
Timbuktu......... strange.
