Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order amends the Passenger Car Fuel Consumption Order 1983 (“the principal Order”) so that, in addition to the procedures already approved for determining the fuel consumption of certain passenger cars, approval is given to the test procedure introduced by Commission Directive 93/116/EC which amends Council Directive 80/1268/EEC.
The principal Order is also amended so that, in a case where the results of an officially approved test carried out on a car have been recorded in an ECE or EEC fuel consumption document, there is no longer any requirement for the fuel consumption of the car to be separately certified by the Secretary of State in an official fuel economy certificate. In such a case the fuel consumption document is to be treated as such a certificate.
This Order also updates certain references in the principal Order and makes minor, consequential and drafting amendments to it.
Copies of the Directives referred to above may be obtained from Her Majesty’s Stationery Office.
