These Regulations give effect to the provisions of Commission Delegated Directive 2012/51/EU of 10 October 2012 through the amendment of the European Union (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Regulations 2012 ( S.I. No.513 of 2012 ) as amended by the European Union (Restriction of Certain Hazardous Substances in Electrical and Electronic Equipment) (Amendment No.1) Regulations 2012 ( S.I. No. 514 of 2012 ) Commission Delegated Directive 2012/51/EU amends for the purposes of adapting to technical progress, Annex III to Directive 2011/65/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards an exemption for photoresistors for analogue optocouplers applied in professional audio equipment containing cadmium. As the substitution of cadmium in those photoresistors is still technically impracticable they are therefore exempt from the prohibition on the use of cadmium in electrical and electronic equipment. 1 O.J.
