IPC RoHS Directive Webcast Guides Attendees

"'Only 246 working days to 1, July 2006!' a slide informed attendees during the IPC – Association Connecting Electronics Industries' Webcast, The RoHS Directive on the Restriction of Hazardous Substances, presented by Steve Andrews of the UK Department of Trade and Industry. Andrews gave attendees an overview of the RoHS Directive and an update on RoHS maximum concentration values. But what seemed to really bring attendees to the edge of their seats, and brought about the most attention during the Q&A session was the compliance and enforcement section." Source: smt.pennnet.com
