(2) Point 7(c)-I of Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU exempted the use of lead in electrical and electronic components containing lead in a glass or ceramic other than dielectric ceramic in capacitors, e.g. piezoelectronic devices, or in a glass or ceramic matrix compound until 21 July 2016. The Commission received an application for renewal of this exemption in relation to categories 1 to 7 and 10 before 21 January 2015, in accordance with Article 5(5) of Directive 2011/65/EU. Moreover, the Commission received in November 2014 a request for a new exemption (request No 2015-1) for lead use in thin film electronic sensor elements such as pyroelectric sensors or piezoelectric sensors, which is an application covered by point 7(c)-I. During the following stakeholder consultations it has been agreed with the applicant to evaluate the exemption request 2015-1 in the broader context of the exemption 7(c)-I.
