Statement by the Parliament, the Council and the Commission

In accordance with Article 25 of Directive 2004/22/EC on measuring instruments, the Commission is invited, by the European Parliament and by the Council, to report, before 30 April 2011, on the implementation of that Directive and to submit, where appropriate, a legislative proposal.

In that context, and in accordance with principles of better law-making (including, where appropriate, impact assessment and open consultation), an assessment will be carried out to determine whether and, if so, to what extent, the scope of Directive 2004/22/EC should be extended so as to include any of the measuring instruments currently regulated by Directives 71/317/EEC, 71/347/EEC, 74/148/EEC, 75/33/EEC, 76/765/EEC, 76/766/EEC and 86/217/EEC.

The date set for the repeal of those Directives will also be re-examined, in accordance with the outcome of that assessment, with a view to ensuring consistency in the legislative action of the Union in the field of measuring instruments.
