Article 1

The inter-association agreement signed on 13 June 1983 between the French Association of Self-Employed Waterway Carriers (Association Nationale des Travailleurs Indépendants de la Batellerie) and the French Federation of Inland Waterway Forwarding Agents (Chambre Syndicale Nationale des Courtiers de fret fluviaux) constitutes an infringement of Article 2 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1017/68 in so far as it impairs the normal operation of competition. The main provisions concerned are the second indent of clause 1, which provides for the imposition of an 'EATE levy' on charters for destinations abroad, and the first sentence of clause 4, which allows a discretion not to refund the levy to non-members of EATE.
