This classification is based on a gradual development of harmonised assessment methods and thus represents a step forward for the consolidation of the internal market for the products in question.\n(4)\nFor that new classification, a revised mandate has not been issued.\n(5)\nA new classification system to be used for products covered by EN 1304, when intended for external use should therefore be established,\nHAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:",
