Other implementing measures

In July 2005, Article 21 of the Ecodesign Directive amended the following directives on minimum energy efficiency requirements of certain products so that they became implementing measures of the Ecodesign Directive. This means that their content did not change (except for an annex of the directive on boilers), however any further change to the directives will be carried out in the framework of the decision-making mechanisms of the Ecodesign Directive.
