That document link above is consolidated to Sept 1997, but other versions are available:

It only needs one though

And don't forget, before the UK left the EU, we had an equal say in those laws - so many of those 'Eurocrats' were Brits. In fact, the British position is/was well respected and often followed by many other EU countries.

I've worked in vehicle homologation for well over a decade, and been part of the working groups for vehicle legislation.

That's good info right there James. Thank you so much.

One question arises though. Does this mean that if I ask for a coc now they have to fill in this section? And the company that made the coc just failed to do so!? Or is this considered complete because back then they wouldn't have this section?
I mean, this coc was made in 2023, not 1997. And those values are known... So they should be there, logic says... But what do you think?

EDIT: and what do you mean by "if it is a reprint"? Does this mean that they just reprinted it and didn't check it is was complete?
