Proposal for a

REGULATION OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

establishing a European Maritime Single Window environment and repealing Directive 2010/65/EU

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 100(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

After transmission of the draft legislative act to the national parliaments,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee 7 ,

Having regard to the opinion of the Committee of the Regions 8 ,

Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure,

Whereas:

(1)Directive 2010/65/EU of the European Parliament and the Council 9 requires Member States to accept the fulfilment of reporting obligations for ships arriving in and departing from Union ports in electronic format and to ensure their transmission via a single window in order to facilitate maritime transport.

(2)Maritime transport is the backbone of trade and communications within and beyond the single market. For the facilitation of maritime transport, and in order to further reduce the administrative burdens for shipping companies, the information procedures for fulfilment of reporting obligations imposed on shipping companies by legal acts of the Union and by national law of Member States should be further simplified and harmonised.

(3)This Regulation is aimed at facilitating the transmission of information. The application of this Regulation should not alter the substance of reporting obligations, and should not affect subsequent storage and processing of information at Union level or at national level.

(4)The existing National Single Windows in each Member State should be maintained as the basis for the European Maritime Single Window environment ('EMSWe'). The National Single Windows should constitute a comprehensive reporting entry point for maritime transport operators, performing the functionalities of data collection from the declarants and data distribution to all relevant competent authorities.

(5)The front-end interfaces of these National Single Windows, on the side of the declarants, should be harmonised at Union level, in order to facilitate reporting and further reduce administrative burden. This harmonisation should be achieved by the application in every National Single Window of a common interface software for system-to-system exchange of information developed at Union level. The Member States should bear the responsibility for integrating and managing this interface module and for updating the software regularly and timely when new versions are provided by the Commission. The Commission should develop the module and provide updates when needed.

(6)Emerging new digital technologies present ever-growing opportunities to increase the efficiency of the maritime transfer sector and to reduce administrative burden. In order for the benefits of such new technologies to accrue as early as possible, the Commission should be empowered to amend, by means of implementing acts, the technical specifications, standards and procedures of the harmonised reporting environment. New technologies should also be taken into account when this Regulation is reviewed.

(7)Adequate support and information on the processes and technical requirements related to the use of National Single Windows should be provided to declarants via easily accessible and user-friendly national websites with common ‘look and feel’ standards.

(8)The Convention on Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic (‘The FAL Convention’) 10 provides that the public authorities should in all cases require only essential reporting information and keep the number of items to a minimum.

(9)In order to enable the functioning of the EMSWe, it is necessary to establish a comprehensive EMSWe data set which should cover all information elements that might be requested by national authorities or port operators for administrative or operational purposes, when a ship makes a port call. Since the scope of reporting obligations varies from one Member State to another, a National Single Window in a given Member State should be designed to accept the EMSWe data set without any modification, and disregard any information not relevant for that Member State.

(10)The relevant reporting obligations contained in the Union and international legal acts should be listed in the Annex to this Regulation. These reporting obligations should provide the basis for establishment of the comprehensive EMSWe data set. The Annex should also refer to the relevant categories of reporting obligations at the national level, and the Member States should be able to request the Commission to amend the EMSWe data set on the basis of reporting obligations contained in their national legislation. The Union legal act which amends the EMSWe data set on the basis of a reporting obligation contained in the national legislation should include explicit reference to that national legislation.

(11)Whenever the information from the National Single Windows is distributed to the competent authorities, the transmission must comply with the common data requirements, formats and codes for the reporting obligations and formalities provided for in the Union legislation listed in the Annex and must be made through the IT systems established therein, such as the electronic data-processing techniques referred to in Article 6(1) of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013.

(12)The implementation of this Regulation should take into account the SafeSeaNet systems established at national and Union level, which should continue to facilitate the exchange and distribution of information received through the National Single Window between the Member States in accordance with Directive 2002/59.

(13)Ports are not the final destination of goods. The efficiency of the ship port calls have an impact on the entire logistics chain related to the transport of goods and passengers to and from the ports. In order to ensure interoperability, multimodality, and smooth integration of maritime transport with the overall logistics chain and in order to facilitate other transport modes, the National Single Windows should allow for the possibility to exchange relevant information, such as arrival and departure times, with similar frameworks developed for other transport modes.

(14)In order to improve the efficiency of maritime transport and to limit the duplication of information which must be provided for operational purposes when a ship makes a port call, the information provided by the declarant to a National Single Windows should be also shared with certain other entities, such as port or terminal operators.

(15)Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 provides that goods which are brought into the customs territory of the Union shall be covered by an entry summary declaration that must be submitted to the customs authorities electronically. Given the importance of the entry summary declaration information for the management of security and financial risks, a specific electronic system is currently being developed for the submission and management of the entry summary declarations in the Union customs territory. It will not, therefore, be possible to lodge an entry summary declaration through the National Single Windows. However, considering that some of the data elements submitted with the entry summary declaration are also required for the fulfilment of other customs and maritime reporting formalities when a ship calls in a port of the Union, the European Maritime Single Window environment for maritime transport should be able to process the data elements of the entry summary declaration. The possibility that the National Single Windows could retrieve relevant information already submitted through the entry summary declaration should also be envisaged.

(16)In order to enable the reuse of the information provided through the National Single Windows and facilitate the submission of information by the declarant, it is necessary to provide for common databases. A EMSWe ship database should include a reference list of ship particulars and their reporting exemptions, as reported to the respective National Single Windows. To facilitate the submission of information by a declarant a Common Location Database (CLD) should hold a reference list is of location codes which include United Nations Code for Trade and Transport Locations (UN/LOCODE), SafeSeaNet-specific codes as well as port facility codes as registered in the Global Integrated Shipping Information System (GISIS) of the International Maritime Organisation. Furthermore, a Common Hazmat Database should incorporate a list of dangerous and polluting goods that have to be notified to the National Single Windows in accordance with Directive 2002/59/EC, as amended, and IMO FAL Form 7, taking into consideration the relevant data elements from the IMO Conventions and Codes.

(17)Processing of personal data within the framework of this Regulation by competent authorities should comply with Regulation (EU) 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council. Processing of personal data by the Commission within the framework of this Regulation, should comply with the provisions of Regulation [new Regulation replacing Regulation 45/2001 on processing of personal data by the Community institutions].

(18)The EMSWe and the National Single Windows should not provide any other grounds for any processing of personal data than what is required for their functioning and should not be used to grant any new access rights to personal data.

(19)The power to adopt acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union should be delegated to the Commission in order to supplement this Regulation by establishing the EMSWe data set and by determining definitions, categories and data specifications for the data elements. The same power should be delegated to the Commission in order to amend the Annex to incorporate reporting obligations existing at the national level as well to take into account any new reporting obligations adopted in the Union legal acts. The Commission should ensure that the common data requirements, formats and codes established in the Union and international legal acts listed in the Annex are respected. It is also of particular importance that the Commission carry out appropriate consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level, and that those consultations be conducted in accordance with the principles laid down in the Interinstitutional Agreement on Better Law-Making of 13 April 2016. In particular, to ensure equal participation in the preparation of delegated acts, the European Parliament and the Council receive all documents at the same time as Member States’ experts, and their experts systematically have access to meetings of Commission expert groups dealing with the preparation of delegated acts.

(20)In order to ensure uniform conditions for the implementation of this Regulation, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission. Those powers should be exercised in accordance with Regulation (EU) No 182/2011 of the European Parliament and of the Council 11 .

(21)

(22)In particular, implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission to adopt and, subsequently, to amend the EMSWe data set, as well as to adopt the functional and technical specifications, quality control mechanisms and procedures for deploying, maintaining and employing the harmonised interface module and the related harmonised elements of the National Single Windows. Implementing powers should be conferred on the Commission to adopt the technical specifications, standards and procedures for common services of the EMSWe.

(23)This Regulation should build on Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 of the European Parliament and of the Council 12 which lays down conditions under which Member States recognise certain means of electronic identification means for natural and legal persons falling under a notified electronic identification scheme of another Member State. Regulation (EU) No 910/2014 provides the conditions for users to be able to use their electronic identification and authentication means in order to access online public services in cross-border situations.

(24)The Commission should carry out an evaluation of this Regulation. Information should be collected in order to inform that evaluation and allow the assessment of the performance of the legislation against the objectives it pursues.

(25)Directive 2010/65/EU should therefore be repealed, with effect from the date of the application of this Regulation.

(26)The European Data Protection Supervisor was consulted in accordance with Article 28(2) of Regulation (EC) No 45/2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council 13 .
