THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 222/77 of 13 December 1976 on Community transit (1) as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 474/90 (2), and in particular Article 57 thereof,
Whereas Commission Regulation (EEC) No 1062/87 (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1429/90 (4), contains, inter alia, provisions peculiar to the Community transit procedure for the carriage of goods by rail as well as provisions relating to the document used to establish the Community status of goods which are not transported under the internal Community transit procedure;
Whereas, because of the development of road-rail transport and for the purposes of such development it has appeared necessary to provide that, in agreement with the railways, the latter assume liability for the payment of duties and other charges in certain situations peculiar to this type of transport;
Whereas it has been found useful, in the light of the progressive completion of the internal market to simplify the means of establishing the Community status of goods by allowing the use of commercial documents for this purpose;
Whereas the measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee on the Movement of Goods,
