COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 3020/81 of 19 October 1981 amending Regulation (EEC) No 3237/76 on the advance implementation of the Technical Annexes and the advance use of the specimen TIR carnet of the Customs Convention on the international transport of goods under cover of TIR carnets (TIR Convention) of 14 November 1975, Geneva
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3237/76 (1) put into effect the advance implementation of the Technical Annexes and the specimen TIR carnet of the TIR Convention concluded on 14 November 1975;
Whereas a number of amendments have recently been made to the Technical Annexes and to the rules regarding the use of the TIR carnet, under the amending procedure provided for in the Convention;
Whereas, in the interests of the Community, such amendments should be incorporated as soon as possible into the Technical Annexes to the TIR Convention and into the rules regarding the use of the TIR carnet;
Whereas one main aim of such amendments is to allow the use of loading lists in support of the TIR carnet, although such loading lists would not have the effect of replacing the manifest of the TIR carnet but of simply being annexed to it;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 3237/76 should therefore be amended,
