COUNCIL  REGULATION (EEC) No 1059/86
of 8 April 1986
amending Regulation (EEC) No 1900/85 introducing Community export and import declaration forms
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES
,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Article 235 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (2),
Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (3),
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1900/85 (4) introduced Community export and import declaration forms; whereas those forms must correspond to the specimen single document form COM drawn up in accordance with Council Regulation (EEC) No 679/85 of 18 February 1985 introducing a specimen declaration form to be used in trade in goods within the Community (5);
Whereas the introduction of the single document requires the adoption of implementing provisions, particularly for the formulation of the codes to be used in trade between Member States; whereas Regulation (EEC) No 679/85 provided for that possibility;
Whereas no such provision was made in Regulation (EEC) No 1900/85 as regards trade between the Community and third countries; whereas, however, it became apparent, when the implementing provisions concerning the single document were being drawn up, that it is impossible in particular to establish Community codes for trade between Member States without taking account at the same time of requirements in respect of trade with third countries; whereas the need for provisions for applying Regulation (EEC) No 1900/85 may not be confined to the mere formulation of codes;
Whereas Regulation (EEC) No 1900/85 should be amended as a result,
