REGULATION (EU) No 912/2010 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL
of 22 September 2010
setting up the European GNSS Agency, repealing Council Regulation (EC) No 1321/2004 on the establishment of structures for the management of the European satellite radio navigation programmes and amending Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council
THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union, and in particular Article 172 thereof,
Having regard to the proposal from the European Commission,
Having regard to the opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),
Having consulted the Committee of the Regions,
Acting in accordance with the ordinary legislative procedure (2),
Whereas:
(1) |
The European satellite radio-navigation policy is presently implemented through the EGNOS and Galileo programmes (hereinafter the ‘programmes’). |
(2) |
Council Regulation (EC) No 1321/2004 of 12 July 2004 on the establishment of structures for the management of the European satellite radio-navigation programmes (3), established a Community agency, called the European GNSS Supervisory Authority (hereinafter the ‘Authority’). |
(3) |
Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 9 July 2008 on the further implementation of the European satellite navigation programmes (EGNOS and Galileo) (4) defines the new framework for the public governance and financing of the programmes. It sets out the principle of the strict division of responsibilities between the European Union, represented by the Commission, the Authority and the European Space Agency (hereinafter the ‘ESA’), granting the Commission responsibility for the management of the programmes and attributing to it the tasks originally assigned to the Authority. It also provides that the Authority, when accomplishing the tasks entrusted to it, will ensure that the role of the Commission as manager of the programmes is respected and that the Authority acts in accordance with guidelines issued by the Commission. |
(4) |
In Regulation (EC) No 683/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council invited the Commission to put forward a proposal to align formally the management structures of the programmes as set out in Regulation (EC) No 1321/2004 with the new roles of the Commission and the Authority as set out in Regulation (EC) No 683/2008. |
(5) |
In view of its reduced sphere of activity, the Authority should no longer be called the ‘European GNSS Supervisory Authority’, but rather the ‘European GNSS Agency’ (hereinafter the ‘Agency’). However, the continuity of the activities of the Authority, including continuity as regards rights and obligations, staff and the validity of any decisions taken, should be ensured under the Agency. |
(6) |
The aims and objectives of Regulation (EC) No 1321/2004 should also be adjusted in order to reflect the fact that the Agency is no longer responsible for the management of public interests relating to the European Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) programmes and for regulating such programmes. |
(7) |
The legal status of the Agency should be such as to enable it to act as a legal person in the discharge of its tasks. |
(8) |
It is also important to modify the tasks of the Agency, and, in this regard, to ensure that its tasks are defined in accordance with those set out in Article 16 of Regulation (EC) No 683/2008, including the possibility for the Agency to accomplish other activities that may be entrusted to it by the Commission, in order to support the Commission in the implementation of the programmes. In accordance with Article... |
