11 域内市場緊急事態・レジリエンス法（IMERA）

Amending Directive (EU) 2024/2749 seeks to avoid disruptions to the internal market in the event of an emergency by ensuring that, once an internal market emergency mode as set out in Regulation (EU) 2024/2747 (the Internal Market Emergency and Resilience Act) has been activated by means of an implementing act adopted by the Council of the European Union, designated crisis-relevant goods and services can be placed on the market as rapidly as possible.

Directive (EU) 2024/2749 amends RED setting out how these emergency jprocedures would apply. Among other things, the new rules:

require conformity-assessment2 bodies to prioritise applications for conformity for products that are crisis-relevant over those for products that are not;

permit EUMember States’ competent authorities to presume that equipment placed on the EU market (manufactured in accordance with EU standards, relevant national or international standards developed by an accredited standardisation body that can, in the Commission’s opinion, achieve conformity and ensure a level of protection equivalent to that of the European harmonised standards) complies with the relevant essential requirements;

allow Member States, on an exceptional basis and where there is a duly justified request, to temporarily authorise the placing on the EU market of equipment without carrying out the normal conformity assessment procedures, where the involvement of a notified body is mandatory and can ensure all essential requirements are met;

give the Commission the possibility to adopt, by means of implementing acts, common specifications on which the manufacturers can rely in order to benefit from a presumption of conformity with the applicable essential requirements (implementing acts laying down those common specifications remain applicable for the duration of the internal market emergency mode).
