(2) According to Article 6(1) and Article 10(3) of the fourth Directive, each Member State shall establish or approve before 20 January 2002 a compensation body respon- sible for providing compensation where the insurance undertaking has failed to appoint a representative or is manifestly dilatory in settling a claim. Furthermore, as provided for in Article 7, the injured party is entitled to apply for compensation from the compensation body in the Member State where he resides if it is impossible to identify the vehicle or if, within two months following the accident, it is impossible to identify the insurance undertaking. (3) In accordance with the provisions of Article 6(2) of the fourth Directive, the compensation body of a Member State which has compensated an injured party residing in that Member State shall be entitled to claim reimbur- sement of the sum paid by way of compensation from the compensation body in the Member State in which the insurance undertaking which issued the policy of the presumed liable party is established. (4) By virtue of Article 6(3)(a) of the fourth Directive, the entry into force of Article 6 of the fourth Directive is subject to the conclusion of an agreement between the compensation bodies established or approved by the Member States defining their functions and obligations and the procedures for reimbursement. (5) All the Member States have designated the compensation bodies responsible for providing compensation to injured parties in the cases referred to in Article 1 of the fourth motor insurance Directive, as provided for by its Article 6. An agreement between these compensation bodies according to this provision was concluded on 29 April 2002 in Brussels and notified to the European Commission by letter dated 19 July 2002 within the deadline established by Article 10(3) of the same Direc- tive. (6) Article 6(3)(b) calls on the Commission to fix the date from which Article 6 of the fourth Directive shall take effect, and the Commission has already ascertained, after consulting the Insurance Committee, the conclusion of this agreement. (7) In accordance with Article 10(1) of the fourth motor insurance Directive, Member States shall apply the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary to comply with it before 20 January 2003, (1) OJ L 181, 20.7.2000, p. 65.
