Commission Implementing Decision (EU) 2023/1696 of 10 August 2023 amending Implementing Decision 2011/665/EU as regards the specification for the European register of authorised types of vehicles referred to in Article 48 of Directive (EU) 2016/797 of the European Parliament and of the Council (notified under document C(2023) 5020) (Text with EEA relevance) THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION, Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, Having regard to Directive (EU) 2016/797 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2016 on the interoperability of the rail system within the European Union OJ L 138, 26.5.2016, p. 44. , and in particular Article 5(11) and Article 48(2) thereof, Whereas: (1) Railways are being called on to play a key role in a decarbonised transport system, as planned in the European Green Deal and the sustainable and smart mobility strategy, and in the light of developments in this field, a revision of the current Technical Specifications for Interoperability (TSIs) is required. (2) On 24 January 2020, in accordance with Article 19(1) of Regulation (EU) 2016/796 of the European Parliament and of the Council Regulation (EU) 2016/796 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 May 2016 on the European Union Agency for Railways and repealing Regulation (EC) No 881/2004 (OJ L 138, 26.5.2016, p. 1). , the Commission requested the European Union Agency for Railways (the Agency) to prepare recommendations supporting selected specific objectives set out in Commission Delegated Decision (EU) 2017/1474 Commission Delegated Decision (EU) 2017/1474 of 8 June 2017 supplementing Directive (EU) 2016/797 of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to specific objectives for the drafting, adoption and review of technical specifications for interoperability (OJ L 210, 15.8.2017, p. 5). in order to integrate them in the TSIs to improve interoperability. This would also make it possible to facilitate, improve and develop rail transport services in the Union and with third countries and contribute to completing the single European railway area and the progressive achievement of the internal market. (3) On 30 June 2022, the Agency issued Recommendation ERA 1175-1218 Recommendation ERA 1175-1218 of the European Union Agency for Railways on the TSI revision package 2022 – Digital Rail and Green Freight. on several TSIs relating to implementing specific objectives under Articles 4 to 6 and 8 to 10 of Delegated Decision (EU) 2017/1474. (4) As a result of the Agency Recommendation, the Commission is amending several TSIs, including TSI CCS Commission Regulation (EU) 2016/919 of 27 May 2016 on the technical specification for interoperability relating to the control-command and signalling subsystems of the rail system in the European Union. (OJ L 158, 15.6.2016, p. 1). , TSI LOC&PAS Commission Regulation (EU) No 1302/2014 of 18 November 2014 concerning a technical specification for interoperability relating to the rolling stock – locomotives and passenger rolling stock subsystem of the rail system in the European Union. (OJ L 356, 12.12.2014, p. 228).

and TSI WAG Commission Regulation (EU) No 321/2013 of 13 March 2013 concerning the technical specification for interoperability relating to the subsystem rolling stock – freight wagons of the rail system in the European Union and repealing Decision 2006/861/EC (OJ L 104, 12.4.2013, p. 1). which are relevant for the European register of authorised types of railway vehicles (ERATV). (5) A revision of the ERATV parameters is therefore needed to align them with the revision of the relevant TSIs. (6) The measures provided for in this Decision are in accordance with the opinion of the Railway Interoperability and Safety Committee, pursuant to Article 51 of Directive (EU) 2016/797, HAS ADOPTED THIS DECISION:
