The Committee on Transport and Tourism adopted a report drafted by Georg JARZEMBOWSKI (EPP-ED, DE) and made some amendments to the proposal for a regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council amending Council Regulation (EC) No 1172/98 on statistical returns in respect of the carriage of goods by road as regards the implementing powers conferred on the Commission – Adaptation to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. -
The committee deleted Article 9, since it considered that Article 9 was a repetition of Articles 3 to 6, although a somewhat different wording is used. In particular in the opening sentence refers generally to the procedures for implementing the Regulation, including the measures for adapting it to economic and technical progress. The Committee considered this confusing or even redundant and therefore deleted Article 9.
