“In the last few issues we have told you about changes to the MOT test resulting from Directive 2009/40/EC, which is being updated through Directive 2010/48/EU. Well, things have moved on leaps and bounds over the last few months and we have now agreed and developed all the changes that need to be made prior to introducing them in 2012.Of course, there is a lot more hard work ahead of us – not only to reprogram MOT Comp but also to communicate the necessary changes. All this starts now – so watch out for a series of Special

Notices over the coming year that will explain what is happening and when. We will be launching new test items, releasing new Inspection Manual pages and helping you to familiarise yourselves with these changes ahead of time.

The year is only just getting started – if you want to know more about the forthcoming changes why not visit one of our MOT seminars that are currently taking place around the country.
