| English term or phrase: legislative framework | | The Automotive Block Exemption Regulation 1400/2002 (BER), which came into force on 1 October 2002, is the new legislative framework for motor vehicle distribution and servicing agreements. Also containing important provisions for the automotive aftermarket, the new BER aims at creating more competition in the servicing and repair markets as well as in the markets for the supply of spare parts. The European Commission thereby intends to preserve the consumer’s right to have their vehicles maintained, serviced and repaired at a workshop of their choice and at prices determined by competition. |
