EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM

1. CONTEXT OF THE PROPOSAL

The proposal for a Council Directive adapting certain directives in the field of free

movement of goods is necessitated by the upcoming accession of the Republic of

Croatia to the European Union.

The Treaty concerning the accession of the Republic of Croatia to the European

Union1 was signed by all Member States of the European Union and the Republic of

Croatia at Brussels on 9 December 2011.

Article 3 (3) of the Treaty of Accession provides that it shall enter into force on 1

July 2013 provided that all the instruments of ratification have been deposited before

that date.

Article 3(4) of the Treaty of Accession enables the institutions of the Union to adopt

before accession measures referred to, inter alia, in Article 50 of the Act concerning

the conditions of accession of the Republic of Croatia2. These measures shall enter

into force only subject to and on the date of the entry into force of the Treaty of

Accession.

Article 50 of the Act of Accession provides that where acts of the institutions

adopted prior to accession require adaptation by reason of accession, and the

necessary adaptations have not been provided for in this Act or its Annexes, the

Council or the Commission (if the original acts were adopted by the Commission)

shall adopt the necessary acts.

Point 2 of the Final Act3 refers to the political agreement on a set of adaptations to be

adopted by the institutions which was reached between the Member States and

Croatia in the context of the approval of the Treaty of Accession; the High

Contracting Parties of the Treaty of Accession invited the Council and the

Commission to adopt these adaptations before accession in accordance with Article

50 of the Act of Accession, completed and updated where necessary to take account

of the evolution of the law of the Union.

The present proposal covers all Council directives as well as European Parliament

and Council directives which require technical adaptation by reason of the accession

of Croatia in the field of free movement of goods – corresponding to negotiation

chapter 1.

This proposal is part of a series of proposals for Council directives by the

Commission to the Council which regroup the technical adaptations to Council

directives as well as to European Parliament and Council directives corresponding to

negotiation chapters into separate proposals for different Council directives. This

structure is designed to facilitate the transposition of the directives concerned by

1 OJ L 112, 24.4.2012, p. 10.

2 OJ L 112, 24.4.2012, p. 21.

3 OJ L 112, 24.4.2012, p. 95.

EN 3 EN

Member States into their respective legal orders. The package of proposals for legal

acts which the Commission has transmitted to the Council is composed of this series

of proposals for Council directives on the one hand, as well as of a proposal for a

single Council regulation which covers the relevant European Parliament and

Council regulations and decisions as well as the relevant Council regulations and

decisions on the other hand. This is in line with the approach which was taken in the

past in view of the accession of Bulgaria and Romania4.

It is foreseen that all the legal acts included in this package will be published in the

Official Journal of the European Union at the same date.

The present proposal and the other proposals included in this package will take into

account technical adaptations to the acquis which were published in the Official

Journal of the European Union until 1 September 2012. The reasons for this are to

provide sufficient time for the legislative processes involved on the one hand, and for

the fulfilment of the ensuing transposition and notification obligations by Member

States as regards directives on the other hand. Adaptations which may be necessary

to the acquis published in the Official Journal of the European Union after 1

September 2012 will be foreseen in the relevant acts themselves or done at a later

stage through the appropriate procedure. In addition, the Commission intends to

informally provide a list of such legislation to Member States in early July 2013.

2. RESULTS OF CONSULTATIONS WITH THE INTERESTED PARTIES AND

IMPACT ASSESSMENTS

As this proposal is of a purely technical nature and does not involve any political

choices, consultations with interested parties or impact assessments would not have

made sense.

3 LEGAL ELEMENTS OF THE PROPOSAL

The legal basis for the proposal is Article 50 of the Act concerning the conditions of

accession of the Republic of Croatia.

The principles of subsidiarity and proportionality are fully respected. The action of

the Union is necessary under the principle of subsidiarity (Article 5 (3) TEU)

because it concerns technical adaptations to legal acts which were enacted by the

Union. The proposal respects the principle of proportionality (Article 5 (4) TEU)

because it does not go beyond what is necessary to reach the objective pursued.

4. BUDGETARY IMPLICATION

The proposal has no budgetary implications.
