The goal of the initiative is the removal of barriers between EU Member States for exercising professions in the field of inland navigation, thus subscribing to the main goal of the EC common transport policy of the free movement of persons and goods across the EU. The harmonisation of national legal and administrative regulations is of high importance for creating fair conditions for competition within and between the different transport modes. The Sava Commission participate activly in this process.
All interested institutions, organisations and persons are invited to participate in the consultation.
