Amendment 229 #
Proposal for a regulation
Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) The need for certification, control and monitoring of technical services by the designating authorities has increased since technical progress has raised the risk that technical services do not possess the necessary competence to test new technologies or devices emerging within their scope of designation. Due to the wide differences in interpretation of the current implementation of directive 2007/46/EC and the application of its provisions in the course of the type- approval procedure, considerable differences between technical services exist. The certification, control and monitoring must therefore be harmonised and increased to ensure a level playing field within the European single market. As technical progress shortens product cycles and as the intervals of surveillance on-site assessments and of the monitoring vary between designating authorities, minimum requirements with regard to the intervals of the surveillance and monitoring of the technical services should be established.
