| Has the MD changed? |

| The MD (89/392/EEC) and its amendment directives (91/ 368/EEC, 93/44/EEC, and 93/68/EEC) have been consolidated and made obsolete by the new MD (98/37/EC). Fortunately for manufacturers of machinery, machinery subassemblies, and safety components, there are few changes. Effective immediately, as there is no transition period, the Declaration of Conformity (Annex IIA), the Manufacturers Declaration (Annex IIB), and the Declaration of Conformity for Safety Components (Annex IIC) should be referenced as 98/37/EC, instead of as 89/392/EEC. The most important item—the EHSRs listed in Annex I—remains unchanged and is even better defined in some cases. The most significant change is the addition of Annex VIII, which lists the directives repealed as a result of 98/37/EC. Another change of importance, Annex IX correlates the original 89/392/EEC with the new directive. |
