| ||||||||||||||||
Обосновка | ||||||||||||||||
The Commission proposal only partially aligns the comitology provisions of the Directive 2003/37/EC to the RPS procedure and maintains the (old) regulatory procedure for the application of Articles 15(2) and 19(2). Whereas the former concerns safeguard clauses of individual Member States, the latter concerns adaptation of the Annexes. Similarly to Article 39 of the recently adopted Directive 2007/46 on type-approval of vehicles, such provisions should come under the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. | ||||||||||||||||

Обосновка | ||||||||||||||||
Article 7 of Regulation (EC) No 1161/2005 is not modified at all by the Commission proposal, although it refers for a second time to the powers already conferred in Articles 2(2), 2(4), 3(3) and 6(1), and submits them via Article 8(2) to the (old) regulatory procedure. Moreover, modified provisions of Articles 2(2), 2(4), 3(3) and 6(1) submit the same powers to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in the new Article 8(3). At the same time, Article 7 does not contain a reference to Article 3(4), for which the regulatory procedure remains. Article 7 should therefore be deleted. | ||||||||||||||||

Обосновка | ||||||||||||||||
Only Article 61 is not aligned to the RPS procedure in the Commission proposal. This article provides for a general derogation clause for Member States and the Commission's margin of discretion is large. Such derogation can be regarded as a temporary modification of the Directive's scope of application, and as such (in line with the jurisprudence of the Court of Justice that indicated in Case C-168/93 that derogations to a basic act are in themselves measures of general scope) should also be adapted to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. | ||||||||||||||||
EXPLANATORY STATEMENT
Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission[1] was amended by Council Decision 2006/512/EC of 17 July 2006[2]. Article 5a of amended Decision 1999/468/EC introduced the new 'regulatory procedure with scrutiny' (RPS) for measures of a general scope which seek to amend non-essential elements of a basic instrument adopted in accordance with codecision, inter alia by deleting some of those elements or by supplementing the instrument by the addition of new non-essential elements.
Following the screening of the existing legislation and on-going procedures[3], the European Commission presented inter alia this proposal, covering 59 legislative acts to be adapted to the new regulatory procedure with scrutiny (RPS).
In its decision of 12 December 2007 the Conference of Presidents designated the Committee on Legal Affaires as the lead Committee to deal with this 'comitology alignment' and the specialised committees as opinion-giving committees. The Conference of Committees Chairs agreed on 15 January 2008 on the modalities of cooperation between JURI and other committees involved.
The Rapporteur proposed to other committees that the alignment packages should be adopted as soon as possible, in order for the RPS procedure to start applying to the existing acquis before the entry into force of the Treaty of Lisbon (which contains important provisions on delegated acts, which will replace RPS, but which will take time to be adopted via codecision). The present Report contains a limited number of amendments that were suggested by other committees in their opinions, received in form of letters. One amendment is of a technical character, aiming at deletion of a superfluous Article in one of the regulations.

LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON INTERNATIONAL TRADE
Mr Giuseppe Gargani
Chairman
Committee on Legal Affairs
ASP 9E206
European Parliament
Brussels
Dear Mr Gargani,
Regarding Omnibus - Part I
Regulation (EC) No 184/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 January 2005 on Community statistics concerning balance of payments, international trade in services and foreign direct investment COM(2007)0741 – 2007/0262 (COD)
Regulation 184/2005 has three instances whereby comitology is used. In the Omnibus proposal, the Commission proposes the regulatory procedure with scrutiny for two of those instances, namely when setting of quality standards of statistics in the field, as well as the content and periodicity of the quality reports and when updating of data requirements and updating of definitions.
The regulatory procedure (without scrutiny, article 5 of the comitology decision) will continue to apply with regard to establishing the format and procedure for the transmission of data from the Member States to the Commission.
The only instance whereby the regulatory procedure with scrutiny will not apply cannot be considered to be a measure of general scope designed to amend non-essential elements of the Regulation or to supplement it since it only concerns decisions on "format" and "transmission" of data. For this reason, there are no strong arguments for a further use of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny procedure in the above mentioned Regulation. Therefore, it is the opinion of the International Trade Committee that no amendments to the Omnibus proposal are required in this regard.
Yours sincerely,
Helmuth MARKOV
LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON ECONOMIC AND MONETARY AFFAIRS
Mr. József Szájer, MEP
ASP 12E258
Dear Rapporteur,
The Economic and monetary affairs committee (ECON) has looked at the three first "omnibus proposals[1]. We have noted that only the first text (COM(2007)0741) deals with some of our competencies in the points 5.1 and 5.8.
Point 5.1 Council regulation (EEC) No 696/93 of 15 March 1993 on statistical units for the observation and analysis of the production system in the Community
In general the proposal appears to be compatible with Decision 1999/468/EC as amended by Decision 2006/512/EC.
More precisely the proposal does the necessary adaptation by replacing the management procedure with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny in Article 6 concerning the adaptation of annexes.
The scope of the power in Article 5 is not entirely clear and should in an ideal situation be clarified in order to make sure no amendment of any elements of the basic acts are modified. However, in view of the very strict deadlines applicable to the present proposal, this does not seem indispensable.
Point 5.8 regulation (EC) No 1161/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 July 2005 on the compilation of quarterly non-financial accounts by institutional sector
In this case also, the proposal seems to be compatible with Decision 1999/468/EC as amended by Decision 2006/512/EC with the notable exception of Article 7.
Articles 2(2), 2(4), 3(3) and 6(1) all contain provisions that would modify the obligations of the member States under the Regulation, constituting non essential elements of the basic instrument. The regulatory procedure with scrutiny is thus justified.
It is proposed that the power conferred on the Commission in Article 3(4) remain under the (normal) regulatory procedure. This power allows certain derogations for a limited time to the obligations of the Member States if national statistical systems require major adaptation. The measures allowed are thus temporary and transitional. On this basis it is possible to argue that they do not modify any non essential element in the sense of Article 2(2) of Decision 1999/468/EC.
However, a mistake appears to have been made in respect of Article 7 of regulation (EC) 1161/2005. This Article is not modified at all as the proposal stands.
This article refers a second time to the powers already conferred in Articles 2(2), 2(4), 3(3) and 6(1). It could therefore seem to be superfluous.
More important is to note that Article 7 submits these powers to Article 8(2) which refers to the (normal) regulatory procedure. The fact that this provision is not modified thus leads to a contradiction with Articles 2(2), 2(4), 3(3) and 6(1), which submit the same powers to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. It can be added that Article 7 does not refer to the power of Article 3(4), which indeed is proposed to remain under the normal regulatory procedure.
Article 7 should be deleted. If that would not be agreed upon, it is indispensable to at least change the reference in Article 7 from Article 8(2) to Article 8(3).
We consequently request your committee to introduce an amendment deleting article 7.
I am obviously available to further discuss the issue with you.
Yours sincerely,
Pervenche Berès

Dear Mr Gargani,
On 15 January 2008, the President announced in plenary that he had received the above Commission proposal.

These points of the Annex to the Commission proposal relate to the adjustment of the following legislative instruments:
Annex 2.1: Council Directive 89/391/EEC of 12 June 1989 on the introduction of measures to encourage improvements in the safety and health of workers at work;

On 23 January 2008, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs appointed the undersigned, its chairman, as draftsman of the opinion.
In accordance with the decisions of the Conference of Presidents of 12 December 2007 and the Conference of Committee Chairmen of 15 January 2008, a coordination meeting of the committees concerned took place on 31 January 2008. In the course of that meeting, most of the committees agreed to deliver their respective opinions in the form of a letter.
On 26 February 2008, the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, on the basis of that agreement, considered the points of the Annex to the Commission proposal listed above.
Our committee considers that:
1. the Commission proposal accords with the joint statement of the European Parliament, the Council and the Commission (OJ C 255 of 21 October 2006) on Decision 2006/512/EC and adjusts the basic instruments in accordance with the applicable procedures,
2. the changes in question relate solely to comitology procedures.
The Committee on Employment and Social Affairs decided by 41 votes to 1, with 0 abstentions[1], to adopt the present OPINION in letter form and ask the Committee on Legal Affairs to approve without amendment those points of the Commission proposal on which it had been asked for its opinion.
Yours sincerely,
Jan Andersson

Brussels,
Subject: Proposals for Regulations of the European Parliament and of the Council adapting a number of instruments subject to the procedure referred to in Article 251 of the Treaty to Council Decision 1999/468/EC, as amended by Decision 2006/512/EC, with regard to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny (COM(2007)0741, "omnibus I"), (COM(2007)0824, "omnibus II"), (COM(2008)0071 final , "omnibus IV").
Dear Mr Gargani, dear Mr Szájer,
The Committee on Industry, Research and Energy (ITRE) has scrutinized the instruments pertaining to its fields of competence included in the above mentioned proposals.
Having consulted the coordinators, I provide you in the form of the attached tables the opinion of ITRE on the alignment proposals.
After careful examination we have concluded that three instruments (Regulation 733/2002 on the .eu Top Level Domain, Council Regulation 3924/91 establishing a survey on industrial production and Directive 1999/5/EC on radio and telecommunications terminal equipment) are not correctly aligned, and that a fourth instrument (Directive 2004/8/EC on the promotion of cogeneration) requires a technical adaptation.
Furthermore, the review of the acquis communautaire in the field of telecommunications has revealed that the Radio Spectrum Decision 676/2002/EC (harmonisation measures in the field of spectrum) has been omitted by the Commission in its proposals for alignment. We agree with the rapporteur's approach to group all the omitted acts and under Rule 39 request the Commission to submit further legislative proposals to align these instruments.
Yours sincerely,
Angelika Niebler

LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON THE INTERNAL MARKET AND CONSUMER PROTECTION
Mr Giuseppe GARGANI
Chairman
Committee on Legal Affairs
ASP 09E206
Brussels
Concerns: IMCO Opinions on the Proposals "Adaptation to the Regulatory Procedure with Scrutiny
Dear Colleague,
At its meeting of 18 February 2008, the Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection discussed and adopted three opinions on the legislative proposals adapting the comitology provisions of a list of legislative instruments to the "regulatory procedure with scrutiny" ("RPS"):
- COM (2007)0741 'First Omnibus'
- COM (2007)0824 'Second Omnibus'
- COM (2007)0870 Recast Directive on Textile Names
The three letter opinions were adopted unanimously (by 19 votes).
At the same time, the Committee wishes to register a protest at the excessively tight timetable established and which does not allow adequate time for Committee deliberation on the issues. This is all the more regrettable in view of the number of suggestions the Committee considered necessary for the two omnibus proposals. The IMCO Committee expressed serious concerns about this being indicative of the poor quality of the preparation of the proposals by the Commission, and accordingly asks you to relay this to the European Commission.
I trust that, as agreed at the working level, your Committee will adopt all of the IMCO suggestions without modification.
Yours sincerely,
Arlene McCARTHY

LETTER OF THE COMMITTEE ON AGRICULTURE AND RURAL DEVELOPMENT
Mr Giuseppe Gargani
Chairman of the Committee on

ASP 9 E 206
Mr József Szájer
ASP 12 E 252
Subject: Proposal for a Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council adapting a number of instruments subject to the procedure referred to in Article 251 of the Treaty to Council Decision 1999/468/EC, as amended by Decision 2006/512/EC, with regard to the regulatory procedure with scrutiny (OMNIBUS I) (COM(2007) 741)
Dear Mr. Gargani, dear Mr. Szaijer,
The Committee on Agriculture and Rural Development has scrutinized the above-mentioned proposal, i.e. Annex 5.5 (Regulation (EC) No 138/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 5 December 2003 on the economic accounts for agriculture in the Community).
The Committee has no objections to the proposed realignment, as all comitology-procedures are changed to regulatory procedure with scrutiny (RPS).
Yours sincerely,
Neil Parish Hans-Peter Mayer
Chairman Draftsman
