The annex has been reproduced by Directive 2010 /35/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16. June 2010 on transportable pressure equipment and repeal Council Directive 76 /7 6 7 / EEC, 84 /525/EEC, 84 /526/EEC, 84 /527/EEC and 1999 /36/EC

Directive 2010 /35/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 16. June 2010 on transportable pressure equipment and repeal Council Directive 76 /7 6 7 / EEC, 84 /525/EEC, 84 /526/EEC, 84 /527/EEC and 1999 /36/EC (Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION HAVE-

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 91 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee 1) ,

After consultation of the Committee of the Regions,

following the ordinary legislative procedure, 2) , and

in the following considerations :

(1) Council Directive 1999 /36/EC of 29. April 1999 on transportable pressure equipment 3) was adopted as a first step towards greater security in the transport of transportable pressure equipment, while ensuring the free movement of transportable pressure equipment on the internal transport market.

(2) In the light of developments in transport security, it is necessary to update some of the technical requirements laid down in Directive 1999 /36/EC.

(3) In order to harmonise conditions for the transport of dangerous goods by road, rail and inland waterways at EU level, it became aware of Directive 2008 /68/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24. September 2008 on the inland transport of dangerous goods 4) the provisions of certain international agreements should certainly be extended to national traffic as well.

(4) Therefore, in order to avoid conflicting rules, it is necessary to update the requirements of Directive 1999 /36/EC in accordance with this, in particular as regards conformity assessment, conformity assessment and assessment of conformity assessment procedures, transportable pressure equipment.

(5) In order to increase the safety of transportable pressure equipment approved for domestic transport of dangerous goods, and to ensure the free movement of such equipment, including turnover, market availability and use in The Union is required to lay down detailed rules governing the obligations of the various parties involved and the requirements for which the equipment in question must be met.

(6) Decision no. 768 /2008/EC of 9. July 2008 on a common framework for the marketing of products 5) constitute a general horizontal framework for the future legislation to harmonise the marketing conditions governing the marketing of products. This framework should, in the relevant cases, be used for transportable pressure equipment in accordance with the objective of harmonising the rules on the free movement of products.

(7) In order not to create barriers to transport between Member States and third countries, this Directive should not apply to transportable pressure equipment which is used exclusively for the transport of dangerous goods between the Union and a third country ; area.

(8) In the interests of transport safety and the free movement of transportable pressure equipment, full clarity should be given to the obligations of the various operators, including owners and users of portable operators ; pressure equipment.

(9) It should be imposed on operators in relation to the role of each player in the supply chain, to ensure that transportable pressure equipment is in accordance with the safety rules and market access rules.

(10) The compliance of the transportable pressure equipment with the technical requirements set out in the Annexes to Directive 2008 /68/EC and this Directive should be reimbursable by means of a conformity assessment as evidence of the safety of the equipment.

(11) periodic, intermediate and exceptional inspection of transportable pressure equipment in accordance with the Annexes to Directive 2008 /68/EC and this Directive should be carried out to ensure that safety requirements are continually met.

(12) In order to ensure the free movement and free use of pressure equipment, it must bear a label showing that it complies with Directive 2008 /68/EC and this Directive.

The present Directive should not apply to transportable pressure equipment which had been put into circulation before the applicable implementation date of Directive 1999 /36/EC and which have not been re-evaluated.

(14) Where existing transportable pressure equipment which has not previously been assessed in accordance with Directive 1999 /36/EC shall be subject to free movement and free use, it should be subject to a conformity assessment.

(15) In order to ensure a uniform quality level for the activities of the notified bodies, it is necessary to lay down requirements that authorities responsible for the assessment, notification and surveillance of notified bodies must comply.

(16) The conformity assessment procedures in the Annexes to Directive 2008 /68/EC and in this Directive require that inspection bodies lay down detailed operational requirements in order to ensure a uniform level of performance throughout the Union. Subsequently, Member States should notify the Commission of the inspection bodies.

(17) In order to avoid any doubt about the responsibility of continuous monitoring, the authorising authority must always be responsible for monitoring the notified body, regardless of where the notified body exercises its activities.

(18) Common rules are required for the mutual recognition of the notified bodies which ensure compliance with Directive 2008 /68/EC and this Directive ; such common rules will eliminate unnecessary costs and administrative procedures in : a connection with the approval of the equipment and to clear the technical barriers to trade.

Member States should be able to take measures to restrict or prohibit the circulation and use of equipment, provided that equipment poses a safety hazard under certain, specific circumstances, including when this equipment is in conformity ; Directive 2008 /68/EC and this Directive.

The Commission should draw up specific guidelines in order to facilitate the practical implementation of the technical provisions of this Directive, taking into account the results of the experience exchange as provided for in Articles 28 and 29.

(21) The Commission, in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU), should be given the power to adopt delegated acts in respect of certain adjustments to the Annexes. In particular, it is important for the Commission to conduct relevant consultations during its preparatory work, including at expert level.

(22) Council Directive 76 /767/EEC of 27. July 1976 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to common rules for pressure vessels and control methods for these 6) , Council Directive 84 /525/EEC of 17. September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to seafarable gas cylinties 7) , Council Directive 84 /526/EEC of 17. September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to sweetenless gas cylinties of the aluminium and aluminium alloy, 8) , Council Directive 84 /527/EEC of 17. September 1984 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to welded gas cylinties of inconvenience steel 9) and Directive 1999 /36/EC is obsolete and should therefore be repealed.

(23) In accordance with paragraph 34 of the Interinstitutional Agreement on Better Lawmaking 10) Member States shall be encouraged, both in their own and in the Union ' s interest, to draw up and publish their own views as far as possible, as far as possible in compliance with this Directive and the implementing measures,
