Nevertheless, at European level,various technical requirements for inland waterway vessels haveremained in force. Up to now, the coexistence of various inter-national and national regulations has obstructed efforts to ensuremutual recognition of national navigation certificates without theneed for an additional inspection of foreign vessels. Furthermore,the standards contained in Directive 82/714/EEC, in part, nolonger reflect current technological developments.(2) Essentially, the technical requirements set out in the annexes toDirective 82/714/EEC incorporate the provisions laid down in theRhine Vessel Inspection Regulation, in the version approved bythe Central Commission for Navigation on the Rhine (CCNR) in1982. The conditions and technical requirements for issuinginland navigation certificates under Article 22 of the RevisedConvention for Rhine Navigation have been revised regularlysince then and are recognised as reflecting current technologicaldevelopments. For competition and safety reasons it is desirable,specifically in the interests of promoting harmonisation atEuropean level, to adopt the scope and content of suchtechnical requirements for the whole of the Community's inlandwaterway network. Account should be taken in this regard of thechanges that have occurred in that network.(3) Community inland navigation certificates attesting the fullcompliance of vessels with the aforementioned revised technicalrequirements should be valid on all Community inlandwaterways.2006L0087 EN 30.04.2009 004.001 2(1) OJ C 157, 25.5.1998, p. 17.(2) Opinion of the European Parliament of 16 September 1999 (OJ C 54,25.2.2000, p. 79), Council Common Position of 23 February 2006 (OJ C166 E, 18.7.2006, p. 1), Position of the European Parliament of 5 July 2006(not yet published in the Official Journal) and Council Decision of23 October 2006.(3) OJ L 301, 28.10.1982, p. 1. Directive as last amended by the 2003 Act ofAccession.B(4) It is desirable to ensure a greater degree of harmonisationbetween the conditions for the issuing of supplementaryCommunity inland navigation certificates by Member States foroperations on Zone 1 and 2 waterways (estuaries), as well as foroperations on Zone 4 waterways.(5) In the interests of passenger transport safety, it is desirable thatthe scope of Directive 82/714/EEC be extended to includepassenger vessels designed to carry more than 12 passengers,along the lines of the Rhine Vessel Inspection Regulation.(6) In the interests of safety, harmonisation of standards should be ata high level and should be achieved in such a way so as not toresult in any reduction in safety standards on any Communityinland waterway.(7) It is appropriate to provide for a transitional regime for vessels inservice not yet carrying a Community inland navigation certi-ficate when subjected to a first technical inspection under therevised technical requirements established by this Directive.(8) It is appropriate, within certain limits and according to thecategory of vessel concerned, to determine the period ofvalidity of Community inland navigation certificates in eachspecific case.(9) The measures necessary for the implementation of this Directiveshould be adopted in accordance with Council Decision1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures forthe exercise of implementing powers conferred on theCommission (1).(10) It is necessary that the measures provided for in CouncilDirective 76/135/EEC of 20 January 1976 on reciprocal recog-nition of navigability licenses for inland waterway vessels (2)remain in force for those vessels not covered by this Directive.(11) Given that some vessels fall within the scope of Directive94/25/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of16 June 1994 on the approximation of the laws, regulationsand administrative provisions of the Member States relating torecreational craft (3) as well as of this Directive, the annexes ofthe two Directives should be adjusted by the relevant committeeprocedures as soon as possible if there are any contradictions orinconsistencies between the provisions of those Directives.(12) In accordance with point 34 of the Interinstitutional Agreementon better law-making (4), Member States are encouraged to drawup, for themselves and in the interests of the Community, theirown tables illustrating, as far as possible, the correlation betweenthis Directive and the transposition measures, and to make thempublic.(13) Directive 82/714/EEC should be repealed,HAVE ADOPTED THIS DIRECTIVE:2006L0087 EN 30.04.2009 004.001 3(1) OJ L 184, 17.7.1999, p. 23.
