I spotted the error months ago, when the draft was released.
I thought it was just another example of EU incompetence, like the whole
RoHS directive.
Even hoped we would get errors like this in the final law, confusion in
legal documents could be mighty powerful if you are defending an action from
the authorities against RoHS, and I'm sure as it gets more complex it won't
be long before some will finding theselves in this position.

Your colleague is correct Steph - it has to be a typo. It should say "DO
NOT".
I copied it directly from the article. I didn't notice it as I guess I knew
what it was saying and glossed over it - good catch!
I will repost it so it is corrected

Bob L.:
One of my collegues thinks that there a typo in the 3rd line: It probably
should read:
But for those companies whose product categories "DO NOT" fall within the
scope of the RoHS directive - which includes medical, military, industrial
monitoring and control, automotive and telecommunications products - finding
items such as tin-lead terminated parts in a lead-free world is just as much
work.
