Several initiatives to promote the new regulations have already taken place, including a technical workshop covering the new requirements for wireless HAC, a meeting between representatives of the wireless and hearing aid industries to discuss technical issues associated with adopting the new requirements, and a workshop to promote coordination and cooperation among Federal departments and agencies on HAC issues.” Conformity, December 2003 Ten years ago EU Electronic Waste Directive Facing Strong Opposition “Industry groups both here and in the European Union (EU) are marshalling forces to modify a proposed draft issued by the European Commission that would place severe restrictions on manufacturers regarding the design and sale of electrical and electronic products…The proposed Directive on Waste from Electrical and Electronic Equipment establishes rigorous design requirements for a wide range of electrical and electronic equipment… Manufacturers are reportedly engaged in an aggressive lobbying campaign to force the European Commission to make significant revisions in the draft directive.” Conformity, December 1998 Web Directory Advertisers A.
