66. For Annex 2 (procedure for adopting a European Assessment Document), substitute—
1. When a manufacturer makes a request for a UK Technical Assessment to any TAB for a construction product, and after the manufacturer and the responsible TAB have signed an agreement of commercial secrecy and confidentiality, unless the manufacturer decides otherwise, the manufacturer must submit to the responsible TAB a technical file describing the product, its use as foreseen by the manufacturer and details of the factory production control the manufacturer intends to apply.
2. For construction products referred to in Article 21(1)(c) for which there are other relevant TABs, the responsible TAB must within three weeks of the receipt of the technical file:
(a)agree a work programme for the development of the UK Assessment Document with the relevant TABs;
(b)establish a working group of the relevant TABs to develop the UK Assessment Document.
A representative from each relevant TAB must participate in the working group established by the responsible TAB.
3. For construction products referred to in Article 21(1)(c), within 1 month from the receipt of the technical file, a contract must be concluded between the manufacturer and the responsible TAB for the production of the UK Technical Assessment, defining the work programme for drawing up the UK Assessment Document, including:
— the organisation of work between any relevant TABs,
— if applicable, the composition of the working group referred to in section 2.
4. After the conclusion of the contract with the manufacturer, the responsible TAB must inform the Secretary of State of the work programme for drawing up the UK Assessment Document and the schedule for its execution and indicate the assessment programme. This communication must take place within 3 months of receipt of the request for a UK Technical Assessment.
5. The responsible TAB must finalise a draft UK Assessment Document with the working group referred to in section 2 and must share this draft with the parties concerned within 6 months of the date the Secretary of State was informed of the work programme.
6. The Secretary of State may participate, as an observer, in all the parts of the execution of the work programme.
7. Any delay in relation to the time limits set in sections 1 to 5 in this Annex must be reported by the responsible TAB to the Secretary of State.
If an extension of the time limits for developing the UK Assessment Document can be justified, notably by the absence of a Secretary of State decision on the applicable system of assessment and verification of constancy of performance for the construction product or by the need to develop a new test method, the Secretary of State is to set an extended time limit.
8. The responsible TAB must communicate the draft UK Assessment Document to the manufacturer. The manufacturer has [F121 days] to provide representations to the responsible TAB. Thereafter, the responsible TAB must:
(a)consider any representations from the manufacturer with the working group referred to in section 2 and agree any changes to the draft UK Assessment Document with that group;
(b)if applicable, inform the manufacturer as to how the manufacturer's reactions have been taken into account;
(c)adopt the draft UK Assessment Document; and
(d)send a copy to the Secretary of State.
If, within [F121 days] of receipt, the Secretary of State provides observations to the responsible TAB on the draft UK Assessment Document, the responsible TAB, after it and any relevant TABs have been given the opportunity to comment, must amend the draft accordingly and must send a copy of the adopted UK Assessment Document to the manufacturer and to the Secretary of State.

9. As soon as the first UK Technical Assessment is issued by the responsible TAB on the basis of the adopted UK Assessment Document, the responsible TAB must adjust the UK Assessment Document, if appropriate, based on experiences gained and with the agreement of any relevant TABs.
The responsible TAB must adopt the final UK Assessment Document and must send a copy of it to the Secretary of State for publication of its reference.
As soon as the UK mark is affixed to the product, the responsible TAB must inform any relevant TABs and all the relevant TABs (including the responsible TAB) must keep the UK Assessment Document publicly available by electronic means.
10. Once the reference to the final UK Assessment Document is published by the Secretary of State under Article 22, it may be used by any relevant TAB for the purpose of issuing UK Technical Assessments.”.
