The exact change

Before

**Working at height procedures** under EU Directive 2001/45/EC and national workplace safety regulations

After

**Working at height procedures** under EU Directive 2009/104/EC (which codified the earlier 2001/45/EC amendment) and national workplace safety regulations

Suggested change

**Working at height procedures** under EU Directive 2009/104/EC (which codified the earlier 2001/45/EC amendment) and national workplace safety regulations

Why this is better

2 issues fixed: EU Directive 2001/45/EC (amending 89/655/EEC on work equipment at height) is a real and correctly-numbered directive, but it was codified/superseded by Directive 2009/104/EC in 2009 and is no longer the current standalone directive in force. Citing it without noting the later codification presents outdated regulatory information as current. | Same outdated directive citation repeated in the references and primary sources list.
