COM(77)666final.

EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM
For itswork onthecommon transport polxcy andregional policy ,the
Commission needs basic information oncarriage ofgoods "byvarious modes
oftransport .
Although major progress has "been made inthecollection ofstatistical
data ongoods carriage "byrail andwaterways ,theinformation available
atpresent onroad transport isonly fragmentary ,andexperience has
shown that useful results canonly "beobtained inthis sector by
Community legislation .
TheCommission 'sactivity inthis field hasbeen concerned with the
following twoaspects ofthematter :
a)national carriage ofgoods byroad ,which wascovered byaproposal
foraDirective which wassubmitted totheCouncil in1970 (l).For
financial reasons ,itcould notbeadopted ;
b)asforinternational carriage ofgoods byroad ,theCommission
submitted aproposal for aDirective which wasadopted bythe Council
in1969 under thenumber 69/467/EEC (2).
Inmost oftheMember States ,however ,theimplementation ofthelatter
Directive hasbeen impeded bythedifficulties outlined inthereport
onthesubject which theCommission presented totheCouncil (3).The
report explains that collection ofthedata required bythis Directive
necessarily entails the completion ofstatistical returns atfrontiers .
Since the Benelux countries have abolished customs checks attheir
common frontiers -which makes itimpossible forthem toimplement
theDirective –and since itwould inajiy case becontrary tothe
Community 'saims tomaintain aDirective which implicitly requires
statistical checks tobecarried outatfrontiers ,the Coranission
submitted aproposal foraDirective oncarriage ofgoods byroad (4)
totheCouncil in1975 inorder toachieve its objective b"other
methods „

Having regard totheOpinion oftheEuropean Parliament ,
Having regard totheOpinion oftheEconomic andSocial Committee ,
«
Whereas themeasures already taken and tobetaken inthefield ofthe
common transport policy andinother fields ,especially that ofregional
policy ,call foramore extensive knowledge ofthescale anddevelopment
ofthecarriage ofgoods byroad bymeans ofvehicles registered inthe
Community ,andwhereas thedata must becomparable with those forother
means oftransport andmust refer toboth national andinternational
transport ;
Whereas theMember States already collect statistical data ,atannual or
pluriannual intervals ,inrespect ofgoods traffic within their own
territory }whereas ,since 19&2 ,theoriginal sixMember States also
compile statistical data oncarriage ofgoods byroad between their
ownnational territory andthe other Member States ornon-member
countries ,inaccordance with theCommission 'sRecommendations of
26July 1961 totheMember States ontheestablishment ofastandard
goods classification forthepurposes oftransport statistics (l);
Whereas Council Directive 69/467/HKCof8December 19^9 (?)provides
forthecompilation ofstatistical returns ,tobemade onthebasi3
ofregional statistics ,inrespect ofinternational carriage ofgoods
byroad ;whereas thereport ontheimplementation ofthis Directive
submitted bytheCommission totheGouncil on27June 1974 indicates
that several Member States canonly collect thedata requested bymeans
ofsupplementary formalities atfrontiers ;whereas these Member States
should beallowed todispense with collection ofstatistical data at
frontiers ,asisimplicitly provided forinthe said
