4. 24 November 2011Page 4 ISSUES FOR THE SECTOR: ► Costs initiated by legislation is higher than those triggered by the market ► Tractors have type approval and therefore an inherent market control system. However the possibility to non-authorised repairers, to have access to repair and maintenance information, will make the need of market control even more crucial. ► Parts’ production markets, shifting outside the EU, make counterfeiting a higher threat.
