PROGRAM 2011-2012 |
1 What is the
GPSD?
The GPSD (2001/95/EC)
is a Union directive for the general safety of products. It is a ‘horizontal’
directive which
complements the specific (vertical) (New Approach) product legislation and
covers
consumer products
that are not regulated by specific EU legislation.
2 When did the
GPSD come into force?
The GPSD came into
force and its reference was published in the Official Journal (OJEC L 11) of
2002-01-15. It
replaced the former directive 92/59/EEC. However it only entered into effect on
the
15th of January 2004,
deadline for the Member States to transpose the directive into national law.
3 Is the GPSD a
New Approach directive?
The GPSD is not a New
Approach directive. The directive has no Essential Safety Requirements
(ESR) nor provides
for CE marking.
The purpose of the
directive is to ensure that products placed on the market are safe and it
contains a ‘general
safety requirement’.
A product which has
been produced in line with a European Standard, the title of which has been
published in the OJ, is presumed to be safe in line with the GPSD.
4 Does the GPSD
contain Essential Safety Requirements?
Unlike New Approach
directives, the GPSD does not contain ESR.
The GPSD covers a
wide range of products, which are defined in article 2 of the directive as:
“any product – including in the context
of providing a service – which is intended for consumers or likely,
under reasonably foreseeable conditions,
to be used by consumers even if not intended for them, and is
supplied or made available whether for
consideration or not, in the course of a commercial activity, and
whether new, used or reconditioned.”
Only “safe” products
can be placed on the market:
“…‘safe product’ shall mean any product
which, under normal or reasonably foreseeable conditions
of use including duration and, where
applicable, putting into service, installation and maintenance
requirements, does not present any risk
or only the minimum risks compatible with the product's
use, considered to be acceptable and
consistent with a high level of protection for the safety and
health of persons …..”
The directive provides
for the Commission to give mandates to CEN for the development of
European Standards
for specific products. These mandates will be based on ”safety requirements”
intended to ensure
that the products which conform to these standards satisfy the general safety
requirement of the
directive. After having consulted formally the Committee of the directive, the
Commission decides on
these requirements, which will be similar to ESR of New Approach
directives. The
Committee of the directive is chaired by the European Commission and is
composed of
representatives of the national authorities of the Member States in charge of
the
national
implementation of the directive. Observers, including representatives from CEN,
may be
invited to attend the
meeting for specific agenda items.
5 How has CEN been
involved so far?
CEN and other
stakeholders participated in the preparation of the directive.
Following its entry
into force, CEN and other stakeholders, have attended meetings of the
Committee of the
directive. The committee meets 3 or 4 times per year and gives opinions on
operational issues.
On standardisation issues this opinion is given by qualified majority of the
Member States,
calculated according to the same rules as the Council voting.
6 Are there any
CEN consultants for the GPSD (consultants responsible for assessing
standards
regarding presumption of conformity to ESR)?
The GPSD is not a New
Approach directive, it contains no ESR and therefore no consultant has
been appointed. In
addition the GPSD is ahorizontal directive, covering many kinds of products.
There is no plan to appoint consultants.
7 On what
basis/according to what criteria are EN chosen?
There are several
criteria:
• EN should contain
requirements which ensure that the product is in line with the definition
of a “safe product”
as defined in the directive (see definition of ‘safe product’, Q4);
• Only EN for products can be
cited;
• The EN is neither currently being revised nor about
to be revised.
8 Where can I find
further information?
• The
Commission has an extensive webpage on the GPSD. It can be found at:

The European
Committee for Standardization (CEN)
a business
facilitator in
Its mission is to
foster the European economy in global trading, the welfare of European citizens
and the environment.
Through its services
it provides a platform for the development of European Standards and other
technical specifications.
CEN is a major
provider of European Standards and technical specifications.
It is the only
recognized European organization according to Directive 98/34/EC for the
planning, drafting and adoption of European Standard
in all areas of economic activity with the
exeption of electrotechnology (CENELEC)
and telecommunication (ETSI).
CEN's 31 National
Members work together to develop voluntary European Standards (ENs).
These standards have
a unique status since they also are national standards in each of its 31 Member
countries.
With one common standard in all these countries and every conflicting national
standard withdrawn,
a product can reach a far wider market with much lower development and testing
costs.
ENs help build a European Internal Market for goods and services and position
More than 60.000 technical experts as well as business federations, consumer
and other societal interest organizations are involved in the CEN network
that reaches over 480 million people.
In a globalized
world, the need for international standards simply makes sense.
The Vienna Agreement − signed by CEN in 1991 with ISO (International Organization for
Standardization),
its international counterpart − ensures technical cooperation by
correspondence, mutual representation at meetings and coordination meetings,
and adoption of the same text, as both an ISO Standard and a European Standard.
