     amending Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/799 for the purpose of on-

   THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
   Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
   Having regard to Regulation (EU) No 165/2014 of the European Parliament and of the
   Council of 4 February 2014 on tachographs in road transport 1, and in particular Article 11
   thereof,
   Whereas:
   (1)      Installation of on-board weighing equipment is an option provided for the Member
            States by Article 10d (5) of Directive 96/53/EC for carrying out the control of vehicles
            or vehicle combinations that are likely to have exceeded the maximum authorised
            weight.
   (2)      Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/12132 lays down detailed provisions
            ensuring uniform interoperability and compatibility rules of on-board weighing
            equipment.
   (3)      Since the requirements of Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/1213 are
            in conflict with the provisions on on-board weighing equipment set out in Appendix
            14 to Annex IC to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2016/799, that Annex
            should therefore be amended in order to delete point 5.5 of Appendix 14.
   (4)      The measures provided for in this Commission Implementing Regulation are in
            accordance with the opinion of the Road Transport Committee, referred to in Article
            42(3) of Regulation (EU) No 165/2014,

       tachographs in road transport, repealing Council Regulation (EEC) No 3821/85 on recording equipment in
       road transport and amending Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council on
       the harmonisation of certain social legislation relating to road transport (OJ L 60, 28.2.2014, p. 1).
   2
       Regulation (EU) 2019/1213 of 12 July 2019 laying down detailed provisions ensuring uniform conditions for
