REGULATION (EC) No 1365/2006 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of 6 September 2006

on statistics of goods transport by inland waterways and repealing Council Directive 80/1119/EEC

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 285(1) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (1),

Whereas:

| (1) | Inland waterways are an important part of the Community's transport networks and the promotion of inland waterways transport is one of the objectives of the common transport policy, both for reasons of economic efficiency and in order to reduce energy consumption and the environmental impact of transport, as described in the Commission White Paper: European transport policy for 2010: time to decide. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Inland waterways are an important part of the Community's transport networks and the promotion of inland waterways transport is one of the objectives of the common transport policy, both for reasons of economic efficiency and in order to reduce energy consumption and the environmental impact of transport, as described in the Commission White Paper: European transport policy for 2010: time to decide.

| (2) | The Commission needs statistics concerning the transport of goods by inland waterways in order to monitor and develop the common transport policy, as well as the transport elements of policies on the regions and on trans-European networks. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

The Commission needs statistics concerning the transport of goods by inland waterways in order to monitor and develop the common transport policy, as well as the transport elements of policies on the regions and on trans-European networks.

| (3) | Statistics on inland waterways transport have been collected under Council Directive 80/1119/EEC of 17 November 1980 on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods by inland waterways (2), which no longer corresponds to the present needs in this domain. It is therefore appropriate to replace that Directive with a new instrument which extends its scope and improves its efficiency. |

Statistics on inland waterways transport have been collected under Council Directive 80/1119/EEC of 17 November 1980 on statistical returns in respect of carriage of goods by inland waterways (2), which no longer corresponds to the present needs in this domain. It is therefore appropriate to replace that Directive with a new instrument which extends its scope and improves its efficiency.

| (4) | Consequently, Directive 80/1119/EEC should be repealed. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

Consequently, Directive 80/1119/EEC should be repealed.

| (5) | Community statistics on all modes of transport should be collected according to common concepts and standards, with the aim of achieving the fullest practicable comparability between transport modes. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

Community statistics on all modes of transport should be collected according to common concepts and standards, with the aim of achieving the fullest practicable comparability between transport modes.

| (6) | Inland waterways transport does not occur in all Member States and, therefore, the effect of this Regulation is limited to those Member States where this mode of transport exists. |
| --- | --- |

(6)

Inland waterways transport does not occur in all Member States and, therefore, the effect of this Regulation is limited to those Member States where this mode of transport exists.

| (7) | Since the objective of this Regulation, namely the creation of common statistical standards that permit the production of harmonised data, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States and can therefore be better achieved at Community level, the Community may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty. In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective. |

In accordance with the principle of proportionality, as set out in that Article, this Regulation does not go beyond what is necessary in order to achieve that objective.

  Note: this heading covers items such as empty containers, palettes, boxes, crates and roll cages. It also covers vehicles used to contain goods, where the vehicle is itself carried on another vehicle.
  The existence of a code for this type of material does not prejudge the question of whether such materials are to be counted as ‘goods’; this will depend on the rules for data collection for each mode of transport. | |

| 19 | Unidentifiable goods: goods which for any reason cannot be identified and therefore cannot be assigned to groups 01-16
  Note: this heading is intended to cover goods where the reporting unit does not have information on the type of goods being transported. | |
| 20 | Other goods n.e.c.
  Note: this heading covers any items which cannot be assigned to any of the groups 01-19. Since the groups 01-19 are intended to cover all foreseeable categories of transported goods, the use of group 20 should be considered unusual and may indicate a need for further checking of the data reported under this heading. | |

15

Mail, parcels

Note: this heading is normally used for goods transported by postal administrations and specialised courier services in NACE Rev. 1 division 64.

16

Equipment and material utilised in the transport of goods

Note: this heading covers items such as empty containers, palettes, boxes, crates and roll cages. It also covers vehicles used to contain goods, where the vehicle is itself carried on another vehicle.

The existence of a code for this type of material does not prejudge the question of whether such materials are to be counted as ‘goods’; this will depend on the rules for data collection for each mode of transport.

17

Goods moved in the course of household and office removals; baggage transported separately from passengers; motor vehicles being moved for repair; other non-market goods n.e.c.

18

Grouped goods: a mixture of types of goods which are transported together

Note: this heading is used whenever it is not considered appropriate to assign the goods separately to groups 01-16.

19

Unidentifiable goods: goods which for any reason cannot be identified and therefore cannot be assigned to groups 01-16

Note: this heading is intended to cover goods where the reporting unit does not have information on the type of goods being transported.

20

Other goods n.e.c.

Note: this heading covers any items which cannot be assigned to any of the groups 01-19. Since the groups 01-19 are intended to cover all foreseeable categories of transported goods, the use of group 20 should be considered unusual and may indicate a need for further checking of the data reported under this heading.
