IA <strong>Study</strong> Concerning the Revision of the <strong>Cableways</strong> Directive<br />
Consultation with National Authorities and Notified Bodies<br />
Email questions were sent to relevant national authorities in all EU Member States<br />
and in Liechtenstein, Iceland and Norway to establish their experience of the<br />
Directive and associated issues. On request, the questionnaire was translated into<br />
French and German. Completed questionnaires have been received from 22<br />
countries, while for three additional countries we have been able to hold conference<br />
calls. Some national authorities declined to answer the questionnaire as they did not<br />
have sufficient experience with the Directive. O<strong>nl</strong>y three countries provided no<br />
feedback whatsoever. The response rate from national authorities is summarised in<br />
