RECOMMENDATION FOR SECOND READING on the Council position at first reading with a view to the adoption of a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council laying down specific rules with respect to Directive 96/71/EC and Directive 2014/67/EU for posting drivers in the road transport sector and amending Directive 2006/22/EC as regards enforcement requirements and Regulation (EU) No 1024/2012

Recital 11 a (new)
(11 a) In order to ensure efficient use of transport resources, take into account the operational realities and reduce the number of empty runs, which is an important element in achieving the objectives of the Paris agreement in relation to the reduction of CO2 emissions, a limited number of additional transport activities should be possible without triggering the posting rules. Such activities consist of operations performed during a period in the course of or following a bilateral international transport operation from the Member State of establishment and before the return journey to the Member State of establishment.

Recital 12
(12) When a driver is engaged in a combined transport operation, the nature of the service provided during the initial or final road leg is closely linked with the Member State of establishment if the road leg on its own is a bilateral transport operation. By contrast, when the transport operation during the road leg is carried out within the host Member State or as a non-bilateral international transport operation, there is a sufficient link with the territory of a host Member State and therefore the posting rules should apply.

(13) Where a driver performs other types of operations, notably cabotage operations or non-bilateral international transport operations, there is a sufficient link to the territory of the host Member State. The link exists in case of cabotage operations as defined by Regulations (EC) No 1072/20096 and (EC) No 1073/20097 of the European Parliament and of the Council since the entire transport operation takes place in a host Member State and the service is thus closely linked to the territory of the host Member State. A non- bilateral international transport operation is characterised by the fact that the driver is engaged in international carriage outside of the Member State of establishment of the undertaking making the posting. The services performed are therefore linked with the host Member States concerned rather than with the Member State of establishment. In those cases, sector- specific rules are only required with regard to the administrative requirements and control measures. Nevertheless, until negotiations between the Union and relevant third countries as regards the application of rules equivalent to those laid down in this Directive will be concluded, certain number of cross-trade operations should be exempted from posting rules. _________________ 6Regulation (EC) No 1072/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 on common rules for access to the international road haulage market (OJ L 300, 14.11.2009, p. 72). 7Regulation (EC) No 1073/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 on common rules for access to the international market for coach and bus services, and amending Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 (OJ L 300, 14.11.2009, p. 88).

(15) Union operators face growing competition from operators based in third countries. It is therefore of the utmost importance to ensure that Union operators are not discriminated against. According to Article 1(4) of Directive 96/71/EC, undertakings established in a non-member State must not be given more favourable treatment than undertakings established in a Member State. That principle should also apply with regard to the specific rules on posting provided for in this Directive. It should, in particular, apply when third country operators perform transport operations under bilateral or multilateral agreements granting access to the Union marketTherefore, taking into account the fact that the Union has already exercised its competence and adopted common specific rules on posting of drivers, it should begin negotiations with the relevant third countries with a view to the application of rules equivalent to those laid down in this Directive.

(12) Such balanced criteria should be based on a concept of a sufficient link of a driver with a territory of a host Member State. Therefore, a time threshold should be established, beyond which the minimum rate of pay and the minimum annual paid holidays of the host Member State shall apply in case of international transport operations. This time threshold should not apply to cabotage operations as defined by Regulations 1072/200918 and 1073/200919 since the entire transport operation is taking place in a host Member State. As a consequence the minimum rate of pay and the minimum annual paid holidays of the host Member State should apply to cabotage irrespective of the frequency and duration of the operations carried out by a driverransit and international transport operations as defined by Regulations 1072/200918 and 1073/200919 should not be subject to Directive 96/71/EC and Directive 2014/67/EU as there is no direct competition with national companies in the case of transit and international transport and there is a clear link of the driver to the Member State of establishment of the company. __________________ 18 Regulation (EC) No 1072/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 on common rules for access to the international road haulage market (OJ L 300, 14.11.2009, p. 72). 19 Regulation (EC) No 1073/2009 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 October 2009 on common rules for access to the international market for coach and bus services, and amending Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 (OJ L 300, 14.11.2009, p.88)
