The Customs and Excise (Community Transit) (No.2) Regulations 1987 (Amendment) Regulations 1990

The Commissioners of Customs and Excise, being a Department designated for the purposes of section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972(^[1]) in relation to customs matters of the European Communities(^[2]), in exercise of the powers conferred upon them by the said section 2(2) and of all other powers enabling them in that behalf, hereby make the following Regulations:

    2.    In the Schedule to the Customs and Excise (Community Transit) (No.2) Regulations 1987(^[3])—
 (a) the reference to article 22 of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 222/77(^[4]) in column (2) shall be construed as a reference to that article as amended by article 1 of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 474/90(^[5]), and
 (b) for the words "Carrier to give each office of transit a transit advice note" in column (3) there shall be substituted the words "Carrier to give each specified office of transit a transit advice note".

Alexander W. Russell

Commissioner of Customs and Excise
New King's Beam House

8th January 1991

These Regulations amend the Schedule to the Customs and Excise (Community Transit) (No.2) Regulations 1987 ("the 1987 Regulations") so that the reference in it to article 22 of Council Regulation (EEC) No. 222/77 ("the Council Regulation") is a reference to that article as amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No. 474/90, and consequentially substitute a more apt description in column (3) of the subject-matter of that article.

The 1987 Regulations provide sanctions for the breach of any of those provisions of directly applicable Community legislation relating to the transit of goods which are mentioned in the Schedule. One such provision is article 22 of the Council Regulation.

The effect of the amendment to that article is that the carrier of goods under a Community transit regime is obliged to tender a transit advice note only to those offices of transit specified in the Council Regulation and not, as formerly, to each office of transit.
