答案（中文）
一般来说，答案是肯定的。但是，应根据具体情况评估新法律是否为 REACH 限制之目的取代已废除的法律，同时考虑到引用的目的等。新法律可以明确规定，对已废除法案的引用必须解释为对新法律的引用（例如，REACH 第 139 条）。例如：第 19 条（第 4 款）豁免了根据第 98/8/EC 号指令授权的某些砷化合物用于木材防腐的用途。该指令已被第 528/2012 号法规 (EU) 取代，该法规明确规定，对已废除指令的引用必须解释为对新法规的引用（第 96 条）。第 45 条（第 3 款）豁免了第 2002/95/EC 号指令范围内的电气和电子设备对八溴二苯醚衍生物的限制。该指令已被 2011/65/EU 指令取代，该指令明确规定，对已废除指令的引用必须解释为对新指令的引用（第 26 条）。第 50 条（第 3 款）将 PAH 限制所涵盖的轮胎定义为受三项指令（包括 2002/24/EC 指令）涵盖的车辆的轮胎。该指令已被 (EU) 168/2013 条例取代，该条例明确规定，对已废除指令的引用必须解释为对新条例的引用（第 81 条）。至于限制中提及的行为的修订，联盟法律行为中的引用通常是“动态的”，因此引用被视为所提及行为的最新版本。然而，不太常见的是，引用可能明确提及特定日期的行为；这被称为“静态”引用。
Answer (EN)
In general, the answer is yes. However, it should be assessed on a case-by-case basis whether the new legal act replaces the repealed one for the purpose of the REACH restriction, taking into account, for example, the objective of the reference.
The new legal act may explicitly state that references to the repealed act must be construed as references to the new legal act (e.g., Article 139 of REACH).
For example:
Entry 19 (paragraph 4) exempts certain uses of arsenic compounds for wood preservation if they are authorised in accordance with Directive 98/8/EC. This Directive was replaced by Regulation (EU) 528/2012, which explicitly states that references to the repealed Directive must be interpreted as reference to the new regulation (Article 96).
Entry 45 (paragraph 3) exempts electrical and electronic equipment within the scope of Directive 2002/95/EC from the restriction of diphenylether, octabromo, derivative. This Directive was replaced by Directive 2011/65/EU, which explicitly states that references to the repealed Directive must be interpreted as reference to the new directive (Article 26).
Entry 50 (paragraph 3) defines tyres covered by the PAH restriction as tyres for vehicles covered by three directives, including Directive 2002/24/EC. This Directive was replaced by Regulation (EU) 168/2013, which expressly states that references to the repealed Directive must be interpreted as reference to the new regulation (Article 81).
As regards the amendment of an act referred to in a restriction, references in acts of Union law are usually ‘dynamic’, so that the reference is taken to be to the latest version of the act referred to. However, less commonly, a reference may expressly refer to an act as it stands on a specific date; this is known as a ‘static’ reference.
