COMMISSION DIRECTIVE 2000/5/EC

of 25 February 2000

amending Annexes C and D to Council Directive 92/51/EEC on a second general system for the recognition of professional education and training to supplement Directive 89/48/EEC

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 92/51/EEC of 18 June 1992 on a second general system for the recognition of professional education and training to supplement Directive 89/48/EEC(1), as last amended by Commission Directive 97/38/EC(2), and particularly Article 15 thereof,

Whereas:

(1) The Governments of the United Kingdom and the Republic of Austria have submitted reasoned requests for amendments to Annexes C and D of the Directive 92/51/EEC.

(2) Training for "approved social worker - mental health" and "trade mark agent" in the United Kingdom is to be deleted from Annex C of Directive 92/51/EEC. The profession "approved social worker - mental health" is not regulated in the United Kingdom. Training for "trade mark agent" now meets the definition in Article 1(a), first subparagraph, second indent (i) of Directive 92/51/EEC.

(3) Training in the United Kingdom that leads to qualifications as "certified technically competent person in waste management" is to be included in Annex C of Directive 92/51/EEC, provided the qualifications are accredited in the United Kingdom as National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) at levels 3 and 4.

(4) The wording of Section 5 of Annex C to Directive 92/51/EEC, according to which the training listed in that section leads to qualifications accredited as National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) or approved or recognised as equivalent by the National Council for Vocational Qualifications, is to be amended. Approval or recognition as equivalent are no longer provided for in the United Kingdom. The National Council for Vocational Qualifications has been replaced by another authority. It is not considered necessary to specify the competent authority in the Directive.
