MAC Directive: EC issues proceedings against Germany
2014-02-17
On January 23, 2014, in its letter of formal notice, the Commission requested that the German authorities fully apply the Directive to vehicles produced by all their manufacturers. The Commission also sent a pilot letter - a notice of potential infringement proceedings - to the UK, Belgium and Luxembourg that have informed the Commission of similar practices (extension of old-vehicle approvals) by their respective type-approval authorities, requesting more information on the situation.
