Recital 77

(77) In its evaluation of Directive 2000/53/EC, the Commission found that used spare parts and components are offered to the public by unidentified providers and often come from illegal activities. Therefore, new requirements should be established concerning the trading of used, remanufactured or refurbished parts and components. Such parts and components should, above all, be marked with a label indicating the name of the component or part, and the contact information of the authorised treatment facility which removed the component or part, and be appropriately protected against damage during transportation, loading and unloading of the parts and components. The authorised treatment facility which removed the component or part should have available a copy of the invoice or contract related to the transfer of these parts, in the event that the competent authority requests such documentation.
