Council Regulation (EC) No 1172/95 of 22 May 1995 on the statistics relating to the trading of goods by the Community and its Member States with non-member countries
Official Journal L 118 , 25/05/1995 P. 0010 - 0014
COUNCIL REGULATION (EC) No 1172/95 of 22 May 1995 on the statistics relating to the trading of goods by the Community and its Member States with non-member countries
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 113 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (1),
Whereas Community statistics on external trade are an indispensable tool for the purposes of the common commercial policy and must be drawn up on the basis of a methodology common to all the Member States;
Whereas, however, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity, the Member States are, for reasons of efficiency, to make the necessary arrangements for the collection and analysis of the data, while the Commission is to handle the integration and dissemination of Community results;
Whereas Council Regulation (EEC) No 1736/75 of 24 June 1975 on the external trade statistics of the Community and statistics of trade between Member States (2), laid down the methodological bases for all such statistics;
Whereas since the adoption of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2954/85 of 22 October 1985 laying down certain measures for the standardization and simplification of the statistics on trade between Member States (3) and of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3330/91 of 7 November 1991 on the statistics relating to the trading of goods between Member States (4), certain provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 1736/75 are no longer sufficiently clear;
Whereas statistics on the trading of goods by the Community and its Member States with non-member countries must continue to be compiled on the basis of customs procedures; whereas the provisions already in force should simply be adjusted in line with the amendments in customs legislation introduced with a view to the proper functioning of the internal market;
Whereas, amongst those statistics, those on transit, customs warehouses and free zones and free warehouses have not yet been the subject of harmonized regulations;
Whereas it is preferable that the technical provisions relating to the compiling of external trade statistics be incorporated in the implementing provisions of this Regulation;
Whereas it appears advisable to replace the relevant legislation in order to increase transparency via consolidation of the texts in force and the clarification of certain terms;
Whereas it is important to guarantee the uniform application of this Regulation and to provide, to that end, for a Community procedure which enables procedures for its implementation to be adopted within a suitable time; whereas a committee should be set up in order to ensure close and effective cooperation between the Member States and the Commission in this field,
HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:
Article 1
The Community and its Member States shall compile statistics relating to the trading of goods by the Community and is Member States with non-member countries in accordance with the rules laid down in this Regulation.
