I believe the list in the website announcement and the briefing document should also include the new Machinery Directive (2006/42/EC).

European Union Member States have until 29 June 2008 to transpose this into domestic (UK) legislation. The new Machinery Regulations 2008 are expected in June of this year, and will come into force by December 2009. These will replace the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 1992 (as amended).
