ii

provide evidence, within such period as may be specified in the notice, demonstrating to the satisfaction of the enforcement authority that the non-compliance has not in fact occurred;

3

A compliance notice may include directions as to the measures to be taken by the relevant economic operator to secure compliance, including different ways of securing compliance.

4

Subject to sub-paragraph (5), an enforcement authority may revoke or vary a compliance notice by serving a notification on the economic operator.

5

An enforcement authority may not vary a compliance notice so as to make it more restrictive for the relevant economic operator or more onerous for the economic operator to comply.

a

the appliance or fitting has been made available on the market; and

ii

the appliance or fitting is not in conformity with the requirements of EU Regulation 2016/426 or RAMS (in its application to appliances or fittings).

4

A withdrawal notice may require the relevant economic operator to keep the enforcement authority informed of the whereabouts of any appliance or fitting referred to in the notice.

5

A consent given by the enforcement authority pursuant to a withdrawal notice may impose such conditions on the making available on the market as the authority considers appropriate.

3Recall notice1

3

A recall notice may—

b

require the relevant economic operator to—

i

contact end-users in order to inform them of the recall, to the extent that it is practicable to do so;

publish a notice in such form and such manner as is likely to bring to attention of end-users any risk the appliance or fitting poses and the fact of recall;

iii

make arrangements for the collection or return of the appliance or fitting from end-users or its disposal;

iv

impose such additional requirements on the relevant economic operator as are reasonable and practicable with a view to achieving the return of the appliance or fitting.

4

In determining what requirements to include in a recall notice, the enforcement authority must take into consideration the need to encourage distributors and end-users to contribute to its implementation.

5

A recall notice may only be issued by the enforcement authority where—

a

other action which it may require under these Regulations would not suffice to address the non-compliance;

b

the action being undertaken by the relevant economic operator in fulfilment of the requirements of EU Regulation 2016/426 is unsatisfactory or insufficient to address the non-compliance;

c

the enforcement authority has given not less than ten days' notice to the relevant economic operator of its intention to serve such a notice; and

d

the enforcement authority has taken account of any advice obtained under sub-paragraph (6).

A relevant economic operator which has received notice from the enforcement authority of an intention to serve a recall notice may at any time prior to the service of the recall notice require the authority to seek the advice of such person as the Institute determines on questions of—

a

whether there is non-compliance; and

b

whether the issue of a recall notice would be proportionate.

7

Sub-paragraph (5)(b), (c) and (d) do not apply in the case of an appliance or fitting presenting a serious risk requiring, in the view of the enforcement authority, urgent action.

8

Where a relevant economic operator requires the enforcement authority to seek advice under sub-paragraph (6), that relevant economic operator is to be responsible for the fees, costs and expenses of the Institute and of the person appointed by the Institute to advise the enforcement authority.

9

A recall notice served by the enforcement authority may require the relevant economic operator to keep the authority informed of the whereabouts of an appliance or fitting to which the recall notice relates, so far as the relevant economic operator is able to do so.

These Regulations revoke SI 1995/1629 with savings (see regulation 2).

Regulation 3 designates market surveillance authorities for the purposes of EU Regulation 2016/426, and these Regulations.

Regulations 4, 5 and Schedules 1 to 4 provide for enforcement authorities and their powers of enforcement. Offences and penalties are set out in regulations 7 and 8. The remainder of Part 2 provisions deal with related enforcement and procedural issues such as defences, liability of third parties, time limits, service of documents, appeals and compensation, etc.

Regulation 18 sets out a process for the Secretary of State to review the regulatory provision contained within these Regulations and publish a report setting out the conclusions of that review. The first such report must be published within five years after the coming into force date of this instrument and subsequent reviews must be carried out every five years after that.

Schedule 5 contains amendments to other legislation which are consequential to these Regulations.

Schedule 6 contains minor amendments to the Lifts Regulations 2016 (S.I. 2016/1093), the Recreational Craft Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/737) and the Radio Equipment Regulations 2017 (S.I. 2017/1206).

A Transposition Note is published with the Explanatory Memorandum alongside these Regulations on www.legislation.gov.uk.
