Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2022/275 of 13 December 2021 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 the use of mercury in other High Pressure Sodium (vapour) lamps for general lighting purposes (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(9) It is therefore appropriate to grant the renewal of the exemption as concerns entries 4(c)-I, 4(c)-II and 4(c)-III in Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU for a maximum period of five years, as no reliable substitutes are currently available, in accordance with Article 5(2), first subparagraph, of that Directive. 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.
