Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2019/178 of 16 November 2018 amending, for the purposes of adapting to scientific and technical progress, Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards an exemption for lead in bearings and bushes applied in certain non-road professional use equipment (Text with EEA relevance.) · European Union

(7) Since, for the applications concerned, no reliable alternatives are yet available on the market or are likely to be available on the market in the near future, the exemption for category 11 of Annex I to Directive 2011/65/EU should be granted for the maximum validity period of five years starting from 22 July 2019, which is the date that category 11 enters into the scope of Article 4(1) of Directive 2011/65/EU. In view of the results of the ongoing efforts to find a reliable substitution, the duration of the exemption is unlikely to have adverse impacts on innovation.
