Hi guys and girls.

Well the story on the 3rd EC DLD is that following the reaching of a Common Position by the EU, the Directive has now got to have a final reading. However, before this can be done, the Directive needs to be translated into all of the official EU languages.

This is what is happening right now, and when it is done, there will be a delegation going to Brussels again to lobbying our MEPs just before the Transport Committee meeting at which it will be discussed.

We are therefore going for a final push at lobbying, and within a week will be asking you all to write once again to MPs and MEPs to ask them to put pressure on the Transport Committee MEPs.

In the meantime, it would be really great if you could pop over here and sign our online petition against the Directive.

Just heard about this error on the petition page from another forum, and have notified relevant authorities to fix it.

Maybe so many of you went over that you broke it! Laughing

The 3rd EC DLD will be enforced in 2012 if they get it through.

However, the 2nd EC DLD takes effect in 2007, so get your finger out.

What's the 2nd DLD Sadie?

Edit: For anyone that's interested, it seems to be the introduction of the swerve test.

Click

Is it already passed?

I'll answer this later (probably lunch time) when I've got a bit longer.


Re the broken page - according to De Havilland (our hosts for the petition) it's working fine. We suspect it might be a bandwidth issue, so if at first you don't succeed, please try again later.

I have asked that the number of hits to the link be compared to the number who actually signed the petition successfully yesterday/today in order that they can see that there is a problem, but that may take a little longer!
