On 13 January 2004, the Council decided to consult the European Economic and Social Committee, under Article 71 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, on the above-mentioned proposal.

The Section for Transport, Energy, Infrastructure and the Information Society, which was responsible for preparing the Committee's work on the subject, adopted its opinion on 2 March 2004. The rapporteur was Mr Simons.

At its 407th plenary session (meeting of 31 March 2004) the European Economic and Social Committee adopted the following opinion with 99 votes in favour and one abstention.

1.   Introduction

2.   General comments

3.   Specific comments

4.   Summary and conclusions

Brussels, 31 March 2004.

of the European Economic and Social Committee

Kampen, Onveiligheid van Bestel- en Vrachtauto's binnen de bebouwde kom - report reference R 97-53 SWOV (Netherlands Institute for Road Safety Research). These reports indicate that delivery vans are the only vehicle category to show a steady rise in the number of fatal accidents. Taking 1984 as a base year (= 100), the figure for 2002 had risen to 138, while, for all other categories, it had fallen to below 85.

# Syrian Logistics Cell – Supporting the Warfighter

The 103rd Expeditionary Sustainment Command (ESC), the Syrian Logistics Cell (SLC), located in Erbil, Iraq, is composed of a small team of Soldiers who pack a big punch when it comes to supporting the warfighters in Syria.                Soldiers from the Syrian Logistics Cell, 103rd Expeditionary Sustainment Command, pose for a group photo Erbil, Iraq, Dec. 1, 2019.

Dakota VanidestineVIRIN: 191201-A-OS319-799The 103rd ESC SLC team was directly involved in the recent withdrawal from Syria.“The SLC was heavily involved in the materiel retrograde from Syria,” Sergeant Maj. Jason Palsma, SLC noncommissioned officer in charge, 103rd ESC, said. “Our team assisted in the deliberate withdrawal of U.S. forces from several bases in Syria while simultaneously continuing the defeat of ISIS.”The SLC doesn’t work alone when it comes to supporting combat operations in Syria.“The SLC partners with and synchronizes efforts of multiple elements from 1st Theater Sustainment Command, Special Operations Joint Task Force - Operation Inherent Resolve, and Combined Joint Task Force-Operation Inherent Resolve,” Palsma said. “These critical partnerships are critical to ensure the warfighters in Syria receive the vital support necessary to accomplish their mission to defeat ISIS.”Although a small team, the Soldiers at the SLC have a wealth of responsibility.“Our team works in close cooperation with Forward Logistics Elements in providing mission command with tactical control of sustainment Soldiers to direct movement of all classes of supply, maintenance, and contracting support for remote and austere combat outstations,” Palsma said. “The SLC is responsible for the ground movements of required commodities and cargo into Syria.”The Syrian Logistics Cell may be small in numbers but their support will continue making a huge difference in the fight against ISIS.

#### § 593.2 Purpose.

The purpose of this part is to provide content and format requirements for any Registered Importer and manufacturer who wishes to petition the Administrator for a determination that a vehicle not originally manufactured to conform to all applicable Federal motor vehicle safety standards is eligible to be imported into the United States because it can be modified to meet the standards. The purpose of this part is also to specify procedures under which the Administrator makes eligibility determinations pursuant to those petitions as well as eligibility determinations on the agency's initiative.
#### Edwards v. Ferguson *et*al., *Appellants.*

Public Officers: personal liability. Public officers, who are invested with discretionary powers in the performance of ministerial duties, cannot be held to a personal liability for acts not maliciously done.

*Appeal from Louisiana Court of Common Pleas.*— Hon. G-. Porter, Judge.

Reversed.

This was a suit to enforce against-the defendants a personal liability for having, as the petition alleged, wrongfully refused to pay plaintiffs a balance claimed to be due them on a contract for the erection of the Normal school-building at Kirksville. The contract was made by plaint- / ifts with the Board of Regents of the Missouri State Nor- *i*mal Schools, of which defendants were members. The ; board was charged by law with the duty of superintending i the erection of the building. Defendants refused to pay i the balance claimed on the ground, as they alleged, that j plaintiffs had failed to comply with their contract; and in ' their answer claimed immunity from personal liability on- i the ground that their action in the premises was official. *\*and was not prompted by any willful, malicious or corrupt ¡ motive.

*Smith Krauthoff*and *Wm. P. Harrison*for appellants..

The defendants are not liable. The act of the general assembly, under which they acted, clothed them with discretionary powers, and it is not alleged or proven that they *687exceeded their jurisdiction, or that they acted from a spirit of willfulness, malice or corruption. Acts 1870, p. 134, §§ 3, 4, 5; *Reed v.*Conway, 20 Mo. 22; *Pike v. Megoun,*44 Mo. 491; *Schoettgen v. Wilson,*48 Mo. 253; *Britt v. Snodgrass,*66 Mo. 286; *Gregory v.

*Kagg, Biggs Carkener*for respondents.

Sherwood, C. J.

Defendants, who are the successors in office of a former Board of Regents of the Missouri State Normal Schools, are not responsible individually, either for the acts of their predecessors, or for their own acts unless maliciously done. No principle of law .is better settled by the authorities than this, that persons holding official positions, positions giving them enlarged discretionary powers, cannot incur individual liability except on the ground just instanced. In *Reed v. Conway,*20 Mo. 22, an extended review of the authorities occurs ; that case dominates this one. No cause of action is alleged in the petition, and, therefore, judgment reversed and petition dismissed.

All concur.
§ 92.19 Obtaining the services of a hearing official. ( a ) Where a DOT operating element is the creditor agency, the chief of the appropriate accounting or finance office shall schedule a hearing before an administrative law judge or other hearing official.
( b ) If another (non-DOT) agency is the creditor agency, then it is the responsibility of that agency to arrange for a hearing if one is requested.
( c ) Agents for the paying agency are designated in appendix A to 5 CFR part 581. (This appendix lists the agents designated to accept legal process for the executive branch, the U.S. Postal Service, the Postal Rate Commission, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, the Virgin Islands, and the Smithsonian Institution.)

General Comment

This scheme smacks of governmental confiscation of private assets without due process, and
forcing the property owner to accept a promissary instrument whose enforcement is
unenforceable due to soverign immunity.

The Social Security "trust fund" was to have been a similar "benefit" to participants, however, has
reached the threshold of insolvency several years before it was predicted to do so. (As if reaching
insolvency right on schedule is a good thing.)

We cannot trust the government and the Washington ruling class of either party to not play
politics with this fund, much the same as they could not keep their hands off of Social Security
funds.

Credible sources attribute this massive asset grab to the fact that China is now threatening to cut
off the easy credit to fund massive government spending programs, and retirement pools
represent large quantities of money for politicians to grab.

This is an unconstitutional, TERRIBLE AND BAD idea and must be abandoned. Government MUST
cut way back on unfunded entitlement vote-buying programs.

General Comment

Seems to me that any conflicts of interest should not be allowed. Is there a set degree of conflict that is

 allowable? And who shall be the person to determine that each and every bit of compensation given to someone

 with a conflict is not being abused? We have seen in MANY forms of our government where conflicts of

 interest occur and NOT ONE is stopped or prohibited until it has gone on for years! No! Any conflict of interest

 should NOT be rewarded!
