(1) Directive 98/34/EC of 22 June 1998 (OJ L 204 of 21 July 1998) codifies Directive 83/189/EEC as modified mainly by Directives 88/182/EEC and 94/10/EC. Directive 98/34/EC has been modified by Directive 98/48/EC of 20 July 1998 (OJ L 217 of 5 August 1998) extending the scope thereof to information society services. This extension entered into force on 5 August 1999.
(2) Article 8.2 of the Directive.
(3) Article 9.2 of the Directive (‘detailed opinion… to the effect that the measure envisaged may create obstacles to the free movement of goods or services or the free establishment of service operators within the context of the internal market’.)
(4) By virtue of the EEA Agreement, EFTA countries party to this Agreement apply Directive 98/34/EC with the necessary modifications provided for in Annex II, Chapter XIX, point 1, and may, to this end, issue comments against drafts notified by the Community Member States. Switzerland may also deliver such comments based on an informal information exchange agreement in the field of technical standards.
(5) Procedure 98/34 has been extended to Turkey within the context of the association agreements signed with this country (Association Agreement between the European Economic Community and Turkey (OJ 1964, p. 3687) and Decisions 1/95 and 2/97 of the EC-Turkey Association Council).
(6) Article 9.3 of the Directive according to which the Member States shall postpone the adoption of the notified draft (with the exception of service-related draft regulations) for 12 months from the date of receipt by the Commission if it is the Commission’s intention to propose or adopt a directive, regulation or decision.
(7) Article 9.4 of the Directive according to which the Member States postpone the adoption of the notified draft for 12 months from the date of receipt by the Commission if it is reported that the draft concerns a matter covered by a proposal for a directive, regulation or decision presented to the Council.
(8) The EEA Agreement (see note 4) lays down the obligation for EFTA countries party to this Agreement to notify draft technical regulations to the Commission.
(9) Based on the informal information exchange agreement in the field of technical regulations (see note 4), Switzerland submits its draft technical regulations to the Commission.
(10) The only type of reaction laid down by the EEA Agreement (see notes 4 and 7) is the possibility for the Community to deliver comments (Article 8.2 of Directive 98/34/EC as covered in Annex II. Chapter XIX, point 1 of this Agreement). The same type of reaction may be issued with regard to notifications from Switzerland based on the informal agreement between the Community and this country (see notes 4 and 8).
