Explanatory memorandum
This proposal arises out of the Commission 's obligation under Council
Regulation ( EEC ) No 3568 / 83 on the fixing of rates for the carriage of
goods by road between Member States to submit a proposal to the Council
that will enable it to decide by 31 December 1987 at the latest on the
tariff arrangements as from 1 January 1989 .
The carriage of goods by road sector is developing fast :
- in November 1986 the Commission submitted to the Council a proposal for a
    Council Regulation on access to the market for the carriage of goods by road
    between Member States ( 1 ). The aim of this proposal on road haulage capacity
    is to establish a new organization of the market ;
- in adopting Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 1879 / 87 of 30 June 1987 the Council
    has acted on some of the measures proposed for 1987 ( 40% increase in the
    Community quota for 1987 );
- the other measures advocated by the Commission must be decided upon by the
    Council in the coming months and at the latest in 1988 .
Under these circumstances , and given the link between transport    rates and
capacity , the decision-making process regarding organization of    the market
should not be weighed down or slowed down by proposals designed     to establish
new tariff arrangements . Until decisions on the rules governing    access to
the market are taken the continuity of Community policy on tariffs must be
assured . It is therefore necessary to extend by one year the Community rules
governing the fixing of rates , and to carry forward to 31.12.1988 the date
on which the Council has to decide the tariff system which will be introduced
on the expiry of this Regulation .

                            Proposal for a Council Regulation
                       mending Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 3568 / 83
on the fixing of rates for the carriage of goods by road between Member States
   I HE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ,
   Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community , and
   in particular Article 75 thereof ,
   Having regard to the proposal from the Commission ,
   Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament , ( 1 )
   Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee , ( 2 )
   Whereas the fixing of rates and conditions for the carriage of goods by
   road between Member States is currently governed by Council Regulation
   ( EEC ) No 3568 / 83 of 1 December 1983 on the fixing of rates for the
   carriage of goods by road between Member States ;
   Whereas , under Article 20 thereof , that Regulation expires on 31 December 1988
   and the Council must decide by 31 December 1987 at the latest on the subsequent
   arrangements applicable to rates and conditions for the said carriage ;
   (1 )
   (2)

Whereas the organization of the market for the carriage of goods by road
is developing fast on account of proposals submitted by the Commission to
the Council on access to the market for such operations ( 1 );
Whereas the decisions to be taken on these proposals should not be weighed
down by new arrangements regarding the fixing of rates ;
Whereas until such decisions are taken the continuity of the Community policy
on tariffs should be assured ;
Whereas , therefore , the period of validity of Council Regulation ( EEC )
No 3568 / 83 should be extended by one year , and whereas the time limit
for decision by the Council on the future system of prices and conditions
for this sector should , in consequence , be carried forward by one year .
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION :
                                   Article 1
Council Regulation ( EEC ) No 3568 / 83 is hereby amended as follows :

 In the third paragraph of Article 20 , " 31 December 1987 " is replaced by
