Judgment of 16 Feb 2017law://eu/cjeu/2015/c-219-15/para_3@2026-11-10

3Directive 93/42 was amended by Directive 2007/47/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 September 2007 (OJ 2007 L 247, p. 21). However, those amendments relate to provisions that were to be applied from 21 March 2010 and are therefore irrelevant for the purpose of the present proceedings.
