REGULATION (EU) No 1090/2010 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 24 November 2010
amending Directive 2009/42/EC on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods and passengers by sea
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 338(1) thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (1),
Whereas:
(1) |
The second paragraph of Annex VIII to Directive 2009/42/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (2) provides that the conditions for collecting data set B1 (data concerning ‘Seaborne transport in the main European ports, by port, type of cargo, goods and relation’) are to be decided by the Council on a proposal from the Commission in the light of the results of the pilot study carried out during a three-year transitional period, as provided for in Article 10 of Council Directive 95/64/EC of 8 December 1995 on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods and passengers by sea (3). |
(2) |
According to the Report from the Commission to the Council and to the European Parliament on experience acquired in the work carried out pursuant to Directive 95/64/EC (‘Commission Report’), the collection of detailed information appeared feasible and to be at a reasonable cost for bulk and semi-bulk cargo. However, the main difficulty occurred in compiling such data for containers and ro-ro traffic. It was appropriate to explore the possibility to extend the scope of Directive 95/64/EC to other items of information listed in Article 10(2)(a) of that Directive only when more experience had been gained with collecting the current variables and when the current system was well established. As regards the collection of commodity information, the potential revisions of the NST/R classification (Standard Goods Classification for Transport Statistics/Revised, 1967) should be taken into account. |
(3) |
The functioning of the current collection system is well established, including the implementation of the modifications introduced by Commission Decision 2005/366/EC of 4 March 2005 implementing Council Directive 95/64/EC on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods and passengers by sea and amending Annexes thereto (4) and the geographical extension of the system due to the 2004 and 2007 enlargements of the Union. |
(4) |
A large number of Member States transmitting data to the Commission (Eurostat) within the scope of Directive 95/64/EC have been regularly providing the Commission (Eurostat) with data set B1 on a voluntary basis in accordance with the NST/R classification. |
(5) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 1304/2007 of 7 November 2007 with respect to the establishment of NST 2007 as the unique classification for transported goods in certain transport modes (5) introduced NST 2007 (Standard Goods Classification for Transport Statistics, 2007) as the unique classification for transported goods in maritime, road, rail and inland waterways transport. That classification is applicable as from the reference year 2008, covering 2008 data. The main problems in compiling data by type of goods in accordance with NST/R classification, as mentioned in the Commission Report, have been solved by the introduction of NST 2007. Therefore, for the most part, the collection of data set B1 will not impose any additional burden on respondents. |

In accordance with Council Regulation (EC) No 1172/98 of 25 May 1998 on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of goods by road (6), Regulation (EC)... |
