Collection of statistical data

Article 1

Member States shall collect Community statistics on the carriage of goods and passengers by seagoing vessels calling at ports in their territories.

Definitions

Article 2

For the purposes of this Directive: (a) ‘carriage of goods and passengers by sea’ means the movement of goods and passengers using seagoing vessels, on voyages which are undertaken wholly or partly at sea. The scope of this Directive shall also include goods: (i) shipped to offshore installations; (ii) reclaimed from the seabed and unloaded in ports. Bunkers and stores supplied to vessels shall be excluded from the scope of this Directive; (b) ‘seagoing vessels’ means vessels other than those which navigate exclusively in inland waters or in waters within, or closely adjacent to, sheltered waters or areas where port regulations apply. This Directive shall not apply to fish-catching vessels, fish-processing vessels, vessels for drilling and exploration, tugs, pusher craft, research and survey vessels, dredgers, naval vessels or vessels used solely for non-commercial purposes; (c) ‘port’ means a place having facilities for merchant ships to moor and to load or unload cargo or to disembark or embark passengers to or from vessels; (d) ‘nationality of the maritime transport operator’ means that corresponding to the country in which the effective centre of the transport operator’s commercial activity is located; (e) ‘maritime transport operator’ means any person by whom or on behalf of whom a contract for the transport of goods or persons by sea is concluded with a shipper or a passenger.

Data collection characteristics

Article 3

1.   Member States shall collect data relating to: (a) cargo and passenger information; (b) information on the vessel. Vessels with a gross tonnage of less than 100 may be excluded from the data collection. 2.   The characteristics of the data collection, namely the statistical variables in each domain and the nomenclatures for their classification, as well as their periodicity of observation, are set out in Annexes I to VIII. 3.   The data collection shall be based, in so far as possible, on available sources, limiting the burden on respondents. 4.   The Commission shall adapt the data collection characteristics and the content of Annexes I to VIII to economic and technical developments in so far as such adaptation does not involve a substantial increase in cost for the Member States and/or in the burden on respondents. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 10(3).

Ports

Article 4

1.   For the purposes of this Directive, the Commission shall draw up a list of ports, coded and classified according to countries and maritime coastal areas. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 10(3). 2.   Each Member State shall select from the list referred to in paragraph 1 any port handling more than one million tonnes of goods or recording more than 200 000 passenger movements annually. For each port selected, detailed data are to be provided, in conformity with Annex VIII, for the domains (goods and passengers) in which that port meets the selection criterion, and with summary data, if appropriate, for the other domain. 3.   For the ports which are not selected from the list, summary data are to be provided in conformity with Annex VIII, data set A3.

Accuracy of statistics

Article 5

The methods of collecting data shall be such that Community sea transport statistics display the precision required for the statistical data sets described in Annex VIII. The Commission shall draw up the standards of accuracy. Those measures, designed to amend non-essential elements of this Directive by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 10(3).

Processing of the results of the data collection

Article 6

Member States shall process the statistical information collected pursuant to Article 3, in order to obtain comparable statistics, with the standard of accuracy referred to in Article 5.

Transmission of the results of the data collection

Article 7

1.   Member States shall transmit the results of the data collection referred to in Article 3 to the Commission (Eurostat), including the data declared confidential by the Member States pursuant to domestic legislation or practice concerning statistical confidentiality, in accordance with Regulation (EC) No 223/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 March 2009 on European statistics  ( 5 ) . 2.   The results shall be transmitted in accordance with the structure of the statistical data sets defined in Annex VIII. The technical details for transmission of the results shall be specified in accordance with the management procedure referred to in Article 10(2). 3.   The transmission of the results shall take place within five months of the end of the period of observation for data of quarterly periodicity and within eight months for data of annual periodicity. The first transmission shall cover the first quarter of 1997.

Reports

Article 8

Member States shall provide the Commission (Eurostat) with all relevant information on the methods used in compiling the data. They shall also forward details of substantial changes in the methods used to collect the data.

Dissemination of statistical data
