Hopefully this info helps in relation to the Enforcement/Policing of RoHS
and the establishment of a WEEE Registration Agency for the Irish Republic.

RoHS Enforcement
"The Agency (in other words the Environmental Protection Agency www.epa.ie)
shall be responsible for the enforcement of these Regulations within the
State and shall take such steps as are necessary for this purpose."
Taken from;
S.I. No. 341 of 2005 - WASTE MANAGEMENT (RESTRICTION OF CERTAIN HAZARDOUS
SUBSTANCES IN ELECTRICAL AND ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT)

WEEE Registration
Under the new Irish legislation implementing the EU Waste Electrical and
Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Directive, Producers and importers of
electronics are required to register as a Producer with WEEE Register, the
newly established National WEEE Registration Body.
You must register if you ;
1. manufacture and sell EEE in the State,
2. manufacture EEE and export it out of the State,
3. rebrand EEE as your own and sell it in the State,
4. import EEE into the State.
Distance sellers i.e. those who sell EEE via the Internet or by
telephone/mail order should note that points 1 to 3 also apply to them.
The registration of producers under new regulations made by the Minister for
the Environment, Heritage and Local Government will be the responsibility of
WEEE Register Society Ltd. which will be responsible for registering
producers and determining producer market share as required by the EU
Directive on WEEE.
You must lodge an application with WEEE Register by 20 July 2005

Hi Fern, Chris, many UK'rs, Moss, IPC LF Listservers,
Thanks Fern,
Maybe it is there already yet soon this should be on the DTI's ever
evolving web site on sustainability. The July Perchards that Chris just
wrote us about IS NOT there yet, well at least to me it isn't.
For some reason in my dti reading, I thought a few other groups would be
involved and Ireland and Scotland were under different jurisdictions or
groups for policing and reporting.
I have heard told, that this particular England group on weights and
measures makes sure that a head of beer, ale, etc is properly measured and
will accordingly fine an establishment/pub. "Pour me a ___ and let me
measure that head"
Yours in Engineering, Dave
