modifying Annex A to Decision 2006/679/EC concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system and Annex A to Decision 2006/860/EC concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European high speed rail system

(notified under document number C(2007) 675)

(Text with EEA relevance)

(2007/153/EC)

THE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community,

Having regard to Council Directive 96/48/EC of 23 July 1996 on the interoperability of the trans-European high-speed rail system [1], and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,

Having regard to Directive 2001/16/EC of 19 March 2001 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 19 March 2001 on the interoperability of the conventional rail system [2], and in particular Article 6(1) thereof,

Whereas:

(1) Commission Decision 2006/679/EC [3] laid down the first technical specification (TSI) for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system.

(2) Commission Decision 2002/731/EC [4] laid down the first technical specification (TSI) for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European High Speed rail system; it was repealed and replaced by Decision 2006/860/EC.

(3) Technical progress prompts the need to update the mandatory set of specifications laid down in Annex A to Decisions 2006/679/EC and 2006/860/EC, in particular with a view to take account of the agreement reached within the working groups of the European Railway Agency on the version 2.3.0 of the System Requirements Specifications. This version should apply to both high speed and conventional rail systems.

(4) In accordance with Article 6(2) of Directive 96/48/EC and Article 6(2) of Directive 2001/16/EC, the European Railway Agency shall be responsible for preparing the review and updating of TSIs and making any recommendations to the Committee referred to in Article 21 in order to take account of developments in technology or social requirements.

(5) In accordance with Article 12(b) of Regulation (EC) No 881/2004 of the European Parliament and of the Council [5], the European Rail Agency shall ensure that the TSIs are adapted to technical progress and market trends and to the social requirements and propose to the Commission the amendments to the TSIs which it considers necessary.

(6) The European Railway Agency adopted on 24 October 2006 a Recommendation regarding the list of mandatory specifications set out in the TSIs for the conventional rail and the high speed rail systems.

(7) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Committee set up by Article 21 of Directive 96/48/EC,

HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:

Article 1

The list of mandatory specifications set out in Annex A to the TSI attached to Decision 2006/679/EC relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European conventional rail system, is replaced by the list of mandatory specifications attached to the present Decision.

Article 2

The list of mandatory specifications set out in Annex A to the TSI attached to Decision 2006/860/EC relating to the control-command and signalling subsystem of the trans-European high-speed rail system, is replaced by the list of mandatory specifications attached to the present Decision.

Article 3

This Decision shall become applicable on the date of its notification.

Article 4

This Decision is addressed to the Member States.

Done at Brussels, 6 March 2007.
