EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations.)

These Regulations amend the definition of "the emissions publication" in Schedule 10 to the Motor Vehicles (Construction and Use) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 1999 so as to refer to the most recent (i.e. the ninth) edition of the publication entitled "In Service Exhaust Emission Standards for Road Vehicles". The publication specifies, with respect to vehicles with spark ignition engines, the maximum permitted carbon monoxide content of exhaust emissions at idling speed and the limits for the ratio of air to petrol vapour entering the combustion chamber, in relation to each of the vehicle models named in the publication.

Copies of the emissions publications can be obtained from the Vehicle and Operator Services Agency, Berkeley House, Croydon Street, Bristol, BS5 0DA (Telephone number 0117 954 3277).

These Regulations have been notified to the European Commission pursuant to European Parliament and Council Directive 98/34/EC of 22nd June 1998 laying down a procedure for the provision of information in the field of technical standards and regulations (O.J. No. L204, 21.7.98, p. 37).

Copies of the above-noted Directive may be obtained from TSO, 16 Arthur Street, Belfast BT1 4GD.
