I cant imagine why the DTI isnt aware of the requests - all the
documents are on the EU website;
http://europa.eu.int/comm/environment/waste/rohs_consult.htm
 
Click on the relevant item to see supporting request documents.

Subject: [LF] New Possible RoHS Exemptions

Dear All,

In the new edition of the UK Department of Trade and Industry's guidance
note on RoHS
(http://www.dti.gov.uk/sustainability/weee/RoHS_Regs_Draft_Guidance_Augu
st_2005.pdf) they list nineteen new cases (on page 8) for possible
exemption that are being considered by the commission/consultants/TAC
etc.

My query is this:

The third possible exemption states "Solders containing lead and/or
cadmium for specific applications". Now what are those "Specific
Applications"??? Anybody got any ideas?

I've rung the DTI and they are just as much in the dark and are awaiting
a response from the commission. I'm about to email someone in the
commission to get their view, but wondered if anyone on this email forum
knew anything.

Thanks.
