Executive Summary
The European Commission's Directorate General Enterprise, responsible for medical devices among other sectors, has published in its "Pink Book" a structured list of the legislation for which it is responsible. This includes regulations covering medical devices, although they take some searching since they are hidden away in a section entitled "other product groups" under the table of contents. The list will be updated twice a year to take account of legilsative developments, and the latest list covers the period until December 31 2002. The Pink Book is available online at: http://europa.eu.int/comm/dgs/enterprise/ acquis.htm
