Joint Statement by the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on the granting of Pilotage Exemption Certificates

With a view to facilitating short sea shipping and bearing in mind the standards of pilotage services already established in many Member States and the role maritime pilots play in promoting maritime safety and the protection of the marine environment, the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission see a need to examine a clear framework for the granting of Pilotage Exemption Certificates in European seaports in line with the objective of the Commission communication with a view to establishing a European maritime transport space without barriers as well as the Commission communication on a European Ports Policy (COM(2007)0616) and bearing in mind that each pilotage area needs highly specialised experience and local knowledge. The Commission will shortly examine this issue with consideration of the importance of safety at sea and the protection of the marine environment, in co-operation with the interested parties, in particular with regard to the application of conditions which are relevant, transparent and proportionate. It will communicate the result of its assessment to the other Institutions and, if appropriate, will propose further actions.

Statement of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission on Article 290 TFEU

The European Parliament, Council and Commission declare that the provisions of this Directive shall be without prejudice to any future position of the institutions as regards the implementation of Article 290 TFEU or individual legislative acts containing such provisions.

Statement by the Commission concerning the notification of delegated acts

The European Commission takes note that except in cases where the legislative act provides for an urgency procedure, the European Parliament and the Council consider that the notification of delegated acts, shall take into account the periods of recess of the institutions (winter, summer and European elections), in order to ensure that the European Parliament and the Council are able to exercise their prerogatives within the time limits laid down in the relevant legislative acts, and is ready to act accordingly.
