THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN

HAVING REGARD TO THE TREATY ESTABLISHING THE EUROPEAN ECONOMIC COMMUNITY ,

HAVING REGARD TO COUNCIL REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 222/77 OF 13 DECEMBER 1976 ON COMMUNITY TRANSIT ( 1 ), AS AMENDED BY REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 983/79 ( 2 ), AND IN PARTICULAR ARTICLE 57 THEREOF ,

WHEREAS COMMISSION REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 223/77 ( 3 ), AS LAST AMENDED BY REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 137/80 ( 4 ), CONTAINS PROVISIONS AS TO FORMS AND THEIR USE IN THE COMMUNITY TRANSIT PROCEDURE ;

WHEREAS IT IS NECESSARY TO AMEND THESE PROVISIONS TO ALLOW THESE FORMS TO BE PREPARED AND COMPLETED BY MODERN REPRODUCTION TECHNIQUES ;

WHEREAS , IN ADDITION , THERE IS A NEED TO INTRODUCE A PROCEDURE FOR DIVIDING THE CONTROL COPY T NO 5 IN CASES WHERE A CONSIGNMENT OF GOODS ACCOMPANIED BY SUCH A DOCUMENT IS DIVIDED IN SUCH A WAY THAT ITS PARTS ARE CONSIGNED TO DIFFERENT DESTINATIONS ;

WHEREAS ARTICLE 17 OF REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 223/77 STIPULATES THAT THE GUARANTOR MUST BE INFORMED OF THE NON-DISCHARGE OF A COMMUNITY TRANSIT DOCUMENT WITHIN NINE MONTHS FROM THE DATE OF ISSUE THEREOF ;

WHEREAS THE SECOND PARAGRAPH OF ARTICLE 35 OF REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 222/77 , WHICH PROVIDES FOR THE GUARANTOR TO BE RELEASED FROM HIS OBLIGATIONS 12 MONTHS FOLLOWING THE DATE OF REGISTRATION OF A TRANSIT DECLARATION WHERE HE HAS NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF NON-DISCHARGE OF THE T DOCUMENT , ADEQUATELY DEFINES THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE OFFICE OF DEPARTURE AS TO THE PERIOD FOR GIVING SUCH NOTIFICATION ;

WHEREAS THE TWO DIFFERENT PERIODS LAID DOWN IN THESE PROVISIONS HAVE LED TO DIFFICULTIES OF INTERPRETATION AND IT IS THEREFORE NEITHER NECESSARY NOR DESIRABLE TO RETAIN ARTICLE 17 OF REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 223/77 ;

WHEREAS THIS SITUATION ALLOWS THE EXTENSION TO THE CARRIAGE OF GOODS BY MEANS OF LARGE CONTAINERS OF THE SIMPLIFIED PROCEDURES AT PRESENT AVAILABLE WHEN GOODS ARE TRANSPORTED WHOLLY BY RAIL , THE RAILWAY ADMINISTRATIONS ACTING AS PRINCIPALS FOR THE MOVEMENTS IN QUESTION ;

WHEREAS THIS EXTENSION MAKES IT NECESSARY TO AMEND ARTICLE 9 OF REGULATION ( EEC ) NO 223/77 ;

WHEREAS IT HAS PROVED POSSIBLE TO SIMPLIFY SUBSTANTIALLY THE CUSTOMS CLEARANCE OF MOTORIZED ROAD VEHICLES IN FREE CIRCULATION IN THE COMMUNITY BY NOT REQUIRING IN THE CASE OF THOSE VEHICLES THE PRODUCTION OF THE DOCUMENT USED TO PROVE THEIR COMMUNITY STATUS BUT BY MAKING USE FOR THIS PURPOSE OF THE EVIDENCE PROVIDED BY THEIR REGISTRATION PARTICULARS ;

WHEREAS MOTORIZED ROAD VEHICLES REGISTERED IN MEMBER STATES CAN BE IDENTIFIED AND THEIR COMMUNITY STATUS SATISFACTORILY ESTABLISHED AND THIS MAKES POSSIBLE , IN THEIR CASE , THE SIMPLIFICATION OF THE COMMUNITY TRANSIT FORMALITIES WHEN THEY ARE BEING RETURNED TO THE MEMBER STATE IN WHICH THEY ARE REGISTERED BY MEANS OTHER THAN THEIR OWN POWER ;

WHEREAS THE POSSIBILITY OF EASILY IDENTIFYING PACKINGS BEING RETURNED EMPTY AFTER USE AND OF BEING SATISFIED AS TO THEIR COMMUNITY STATUS MAKES POSSIBLE A SIMILAR SIMPLIFICATION OF THE COMMUNITY TRANSIT FORMALITIES IN THEIR CASE ;
