  1. The ban on certain types of lamp is to be extended to many types of halogen lamp, according to news reports.

    BBC news

     

     

    As with previous bans I presume that manufacture or import is to be prohibited, and that existing stocks may be sold and used without concerns.

     

    Does anyone have a link to a list of types to be banned ? Mainly the smaller ones used d0m3stically I suspect, though do be aware that production of other types may cease.

     

    "The new legislation would mean retailers will no longer be able to sell the majority of halogen bulbs for general household use in the UK from 1 September."

     

    "Exemptions will be in place for lamps designed and marketed specifically for scene-lighting use in film studios, TV studios, and photographic studios, or for stage-lighting use in theatres or other entertainment events."
