Regulation 13 Obliteration of EEC signs and marks

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

(1)

An inspector may obliterate any EEC sign or mark if he is satisfied that the clinical thermometer bearing the sign or mark—

(a)

falls outside the maximum permissible errors as provided by paragraph 8 of Annex I to the Directive; or

(b)

does not comply in some other respect with the requirements of the Directive.

(2)

Without prejudice to paragraph (1), an inspector may, at the request of any person appearing to him to be the owner of a clinical thermometer, obliterate any EEC sign or mark on it which is related to an EEC pattern approval (whether granted under these Regulations or by any member State other than the United Kingdom) which the inspector is satisfied has ceased to have effect.
