Amendment: Directive 2011/65/EU (Cadmium in video camera tubes)

This procedure updates the rules on hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment. It specifically addresses the use of cadmium in radiation-tolerant video camera tubes, allowing an exemption to ensure these specialized components can still be produced despite general restrictions on toxic materials.

This affects manufacturers of high-end electronics and specialized imaging equipment used in environments with high radiation, such as nuclear facilities or space exploration.
