Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2022/283 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 High Pressure Sodium (vapour) lamps with improved colour rendering index for general lighting purposes (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(8) It is therefore appropriate to renew part of exemption 4(b)-I, and renumber it as exemption entry 4(b), for a maximum period of 5 years in accordance with Article 5(2), first subparagraph, of Directive 2011/65/EU. This renewed exemption shall have a revised wording setting out the further limited scope of the exemption. 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.
