Wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors: technical requirements. Codification
2008/0213(COD)
PURPOSE: to codify legislation on certain components and characteristics of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors.
PROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and of the Council.
CONTENT: the purpose of this proposal is to undertake a codification of Council Directive 89/173/EEC of 21 December 1988 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to certain components and characteristics of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors. The new Directive will supersede the various acts incorporated in it. It fully preserves the content of the acts being codified and hence does no more than bring them together with only such formal amendments as are required by the codification exercise itself.
