Asthecases have notyetbeen heard ,there arenofigures onfines for
cases where summonses were issued .Inone case theprohibition wasignored
andthedriver subsequently brought tocourt .Forignoring theprohibition
hewassentenced toafine of£50with £10 costs .
Oncetransport companies aremore familiar with the aims andimplementation
oftheRegulation ,theproportion ofwritten andoral warnings issued in
respect ofoffences could decrease ,whilst ,theproportion ofsummonses for
prosecution could increase .
Intheonecase where theprovisions ofArticle 7°f "theRegulation were
exceeded anoral warning wasgiven .This was also the case inrespect of
avehicle engaged inpassenger transport which wasinbreach ofArticle 14(l ).

IV.Conclusions andproposals byMember States .
1.Appraisal oftheimplementation oftheRegulation -
Mont llember States stated that implementation "oftheCommunity Regulation
wasnotentirely satisfactory . . .
TheFederal Republic ofGermany ;Inspections carried outduring 1973
showed that there was still nosignificant improvement with regard to
compliance with theRegulation .Themanner inwhich individual logbooks
were kept viaiparticularly unsatisfactory .This ispartly duetothefact
that company managers anddrivers arenotsufficiently willing toacquire
adetailed knowledge oftheprovisions .Contraventions bysmall ana
medium-sized companies generally arise outofinsufficiently detailed
knowl edre oftheprovisions .Theexplanation foroffences bylarger ,
companies isinsufficient in-company monitoring andlack oforganization .
Itisconotartly pointed outthat theprovisions aredifficult tofollow
byboth company managers andcrew members . 'TheGerman transport
association point outtheobvious lack ofmonitoring andprosecution in
theother Member States . V/henchecks arecarried .outonGerman territory
there arealways complaints that Regulation (iHiC)Ho543/69isapplied
less strictly inother Member States oftheCommunity than isthe case in
Germany ,Theresult ,itisalleged ,isthatGerman companies areata
competitive disadvantage .
■ι
Belgium :
Belgium isoftheopinion that thenumber ofchecks andoffences recorded
shoivs that theEECRegulation ismore closely observed inpassenger traffio
than inroad haulage .
Thenumber ofrecorded offences shows that there hashardly been an
improvement intheobservation oftheESCRegulation ,Butinthis
connection itshould beremembered that ,since theRegulation came into
force ,theauthorized inspecting officers have gained considerable
experience ,sothat thqy arenowbetter able todetect infringements and
offences .

France;Effortstoensurecloser -observar -ce-_£rftheRegulations .Jaavebeen
steppeduppartioularly "byincreasing thenumberofcompanyinspections .
Difficulties mentioned onprevious occasions ,particularly thosearising
outoflackofsupport "byemployers andemployees ,remainunchanged .
Inaddition aninquiryheldattherequestofanemployers *association
onasampleofdriversshowedthatthelargemajority ofdriversobjected
toseveralimportant pointsoftheEECRegulation .Theinquiry showed
thefollowing results.
-9%ofinternational driversand"JCFfaofotherlorrydriversdemanda
permissible dailydrivingperiodofmorethan8hours;
-83/jofinternational driversand48^ofotherlorrydriversfeelthata
brealcindrivingafter4hoursservesnousefulpurpose ;
-80^ofdriversobjecttothedoublecrew.
Theadministration iscurrently conducting aninquiryonastrictly
scientific basis.However,itisanticipated thattheresultsofthe
firstinquirywill,onthet.tiole,beconfirmed .
Italy,the"opinionisthattheimplementation ofthisRegulation ,with
theexception ofrestperiodsandthedutyroster,is,onthewhole,
unsatisfactory . :•
Luxembourg :sincethepreviousreportfortheperiod1October1971to
31December 1972therehavebeensignificant improvements inthe
implementation oftheEECRegulation .Thisislargelyduetothefact
thattheGrandDucalRegulation No23ofDecember 1972introduced the
appropriate provisions forpenalties .However ,itvri.llnotbepossible
togiveafinalverdictontheobservance ofEECRegulation Uo543/69
untiltherehasbeenatwotothreeyearperiodofexperience inapplying
theabovementioned GrandDucalRegulation .

TheNetherlands :spotsamplesshowthat10.3??ofroadchocksresulted

United .Kingdom :Although theresultsgiveninthisreportapplytoonly

Itislikelythatinthecourseofacompleteyearatleast6000vehicles

Approximately 2000checkswerecarriedoutbetweenAugustendDecember 1973
andshowedthatabout94$ofalldrivershadanindividual logbook.and
thatJlfjmaintaineditabsolutely accurately .
ThesefiguresindicatethattheRegulation isgenerally observed..Itis
therefore tobehopedthatthefigureswillinfuturebeevenhi$ier.
Itwasofparticular interestthatonlyoneoffenceinvolving anArticle
otherthanArticle 14wasrecorded .Thisisparticularly encouraging .
2.Difficulties inusingtheindividual controlbookininternational

Asfarascanbejudged,thedifference betweenprovisions andpractices

significantly compared withtheprevious year.Asalreadyindicated

Mutualassistance andnotification ofoffences
In"the"fi6ld -ofmutual'assistance therehasbeenaslight'improvement v

oneimportant 'condition inthis'field,namely'thecommunication byandto ■
eachMemberStateofthecompletelistofdepartments responsible "for

Inthisconnection itshouldbeemphasized thattheprosecution ofoffences
committed byforeigners (nationals ofotherMemberStates)isaparticularly
problematic andunsatisfactory matterbecauseoftheveryvariedlegaland
administrative provisions ofthedifferent MemberStatesandthepoorly
organized procedureforlegalandadministrative assistance (dou.blepenaltie

What isneeded isforMember States todevelop .joint practical procedures
andrules which -pragmatically andsimply ,andregardless .ofdifferences
"between thevarious legal andadministrative procedures -givemore
satisfactory results intheprosecution ofoffences bynon-nationals and
inthefield ofcooperation between theMember States .
Conclusionsandproposals byMember States
Irnplenentat ionoftheRegulati on
MostMember States notethatthere isaneed formereeffective application
oftheRegulation .Bycontrast ,theUnited Kingdom regards theconditions
applicable tointernational transport assufficient .Inthisrespect
theFederal Republic particularly stresses theneed fortransport company
managers anddriverr tobebetter informed .
Individual logbook
Theinformation supplied onceagain shows that itwould beappropriate to
establish joint rules tobeapplied todrivers fromnon-member countries .
With thegradual introduction ofcompulsory automatic recording equipment
from 1January 19751,which istoreplace theindividual logbookentirely ,
thewhole question oftheindividual logbook inCommunity traffic will
become less irrportant .
