  "text": "(This note is not part of the Regulations)\nThese Regulations amend Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2017/79.\nRegulation 3 permits EU approved eCall components and separate technical units to be treated in the same way as GB approved equivalents, enabling exemption from certain tests that would otherwise have to be carried out. Regulation 3 also makes provision for extending the GB type-approval of a vehicle with regard to the installation of a 112-based eCall in-vehicle system, subject to the requirements in new Annex X.\nThe net costs imposed on business, the voluntary sector and the public sector by these Regulations have been assessed as being less than £10m in any year and therefore a full impact assessment has not been prepared.\nAn Explanatory Memorandum and a de minimis assessment have been prepared and are available alongside this instrument at www.legislation.gov.uk. Hard copies may be obtained from the Department for Transport, Great Minster House, 33 Horseferry Road, London SW1P 4DR.",
