   European Parliament decision to raise no objections to the Commission delegated regulation of 30 October 2013 on the conditions for making a declaration of performance on construction products available on a website (C(2013)7086 — 2013/2928(DEA))
   (2016/C 468/53)
   
      The European Parliament,
   
               —
            
            
               having regard to the Commission delegated regulation (C(2013)7086),
            
         
               —
            
            
               having regard to the Commission’s letter of 14 November 2013 asking Parliament to declare that it will raise no objections to the delegated regulation,
            
         
               —
            
            
               having regard to Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
            
         
               —
            
            
               having regard to Regulation (EU) No 305/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 March 2011 laying down harmonised conditions for the marketing of construction products and repealing Council Directive 89/106/EEC (1) (CPR), and in particular Articles 7(3) and 63(1) thereof,
            
         
               —
            
            
               having regard to Rule 87a(6) of its Rules of Procedure,
            
         
               —
            
            
               having regard to the fact that no objections have been raised within the period laid down in the third and fourth indents of Rule 87a(6) of its Rules of Procedure, which expired on 10 December 2013,
            
         
               A.
            
            
               whereas it is important to ensure that the delegated regulation on e-supply enters into force as soon as possible, given that the substantial provisions of the basic legislative act, including those on providing declarations of performance, apply from 1 July 2013;
            
         
               B.
            
            
               whereas the possibility to make these declarations available on the internet would, in accordance with the wish of the legislator, allow the manufacturers of construction products to reduce costs and also increase the flexibility of the construction sector as such;
            
         
               C.
            
            
               whereas the delegated regulation should have been prepared by the Commission in advance, in order to avoid the unfortunate delay in permitting a derogation from the obligation for manufacturers to provide paper or electronic copies of a declaration of performance for each product which is made available on the market;
            
         
               D.
            
            
               whereas it is of utmost importance that both Parliament and the Council can exercise their rights as co-legislators as defined in the Treaties, including the decision as to which elements are to be delegated to the Commission in future basic legislative acts, and that Parliament is able to take part in consultations — alongside Member States’ experts and other stakeholders — prior to the adoption of a delegated act and in a transparent manner;
            
         
            
               1.
            
            
               Declares that it has no objections to the delegated regulation;
            
         
            
               2.
            
            
               Instructs its President to forward this decision to the Council and the Commission.
