            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING DECISION (EU) 2021/701
of 27 April 2021
         
correcting Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU on the European register of authorised types of railway vehicles
(Text with EEA relevance)


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Directive (EU) 2016/797 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2016 on the interoperability of the rail system within the European Union (1), and in particular Article 48(2) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Commission Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU (2) has been amended by Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/776 (3) as regards the alignment with Directive (EU) 2016/797 and the implementation of specific objectives set out in Commission Delegated Decision (EU) 2017/1474 (4).












(2)


Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU contains several errors in Table 2 of Annex II, namely several parameters of the European register of authorised types of railway vehicles should not apply to freight wagons.












(3)


Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU should therefore be corrected.












(4)


The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee referred to in Article 51(1) of Directive (EU) 2016/797,





HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:



Article 1
Table 2 of Annex II to Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU is corrected in accordance with the Annex to this Decision.


Article 2
This Decision shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.




Done at Brussels, 27 April 2021.
