Has anyone knowledge of the RoHS requirements for electronic products sold
in Australia - is there a July '06 compliance date?

The company I work for manufactures and sells light industrial electronics
products. We know we should be compliant to export into Europe, but what
about Aus, NZ etc. The Aus gov agency websites barely mention RoHS other
than to say it is likely to follow the EU path.

No, the RoHS directive and July'06 deadline is only a legal requirement
in the EU at present.

I have not heard of any dates put forward for an Australian requirement
as yet.
Same for the wider WEEE directive.
