Forslag til RÅDETS AFGØRELSE om Det Europæiske Fællesskabs tiltrædelse af regulativ nr. 105 fra FN's Økonomiske Kommission for Europa vedrørende typegodkendelse af køretøjer til transport af farligt gods, for så vidt angår deres særlige konstruktion

(forelagt af Kommissionen)

BEGRUNDELSE

1. BAGGRUND

Det Europæiske Fællesskab er ved Rådets afgørelse 97/836/EF af 27. november 1997 blevet kontraherende part i den reviderede overenskomst af 1958 under FN's Økonomiske Kommission for Europa (FN/ECE) fra 24. marts 1998 og overholder 78 regulativer, som danner bilag til aftalen.

I henhold til artikel 3, stk. 3, i denne afgørelse kan Fællesskabet beslutte at anvende et regulativ, som det ikke tiltrådte ved tiltrædelsen af den reviderede overenskomst, hvis Rådet, efter samstemmende udtalelse fra Europa-Parlamentet, vedtager regulativet med kvalificeret flertal.

Regulativ nr. 105 vedrørende typegodkendelse af køretøjer til transport af farligt gods, for så vidt angår deres særlige konstruktion, tager sigte på at fjerne de tekniske hindringer for samhandelen med motorkøretøjer mellem de kontraherende parter, samtidig med at der opnås en høj grad af sikkerhed og miljøbeskyttelse. Selv om dette regulativ ikke er opført på listen i bilag II til afgørelse 97/836/EF over regulativer, som anerkendes af Fællesskabet, har medlemsstaternes repræsentanter givet udtryk for, at det nu ville være hensigtsmæssigt, at Fællesskabet undersøger muligheden for at tiltræde regulativet. Endvidere skal regulativet integreres i EF-systemet for typegod-kendelse af køretøjer og således supplere gældende fællesskabslovgivning.

Det understreges, at det er på grundlag af de dokumenter, der foreligger på de officielle FN/ECE-sprog (fransk, engelsk og russisk), det afgøres, om EF skal stemme for eller imod. Derfor er teksten til regulativ nr. 105 kun vedlagt på engelsk og fransk.

Som fastsat i artikel 4, stk. 5, i afgørelse 97/836/EF offentliggøres regulativ nr. 105 i EF-Tidende på alle de officielle EF-sprog, inden det træder i kraft for Fællesskabet.

2. INDHOLDET I UDKASTET TIL BESLUTNING

Forslaget sigter mod at give Fællesskabet mulighed for at tiltræde FN/ECE's regulativ nr. 105 vedrørende typegodkendelse af køretøjer til transport af farligt gods, for så vidt angår deres særlige konstruktion.
