Amendment 40 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 3 a (new)
Paragraph 3 a (new)
3a. Recalls that the modernisation of customs processes, based on the development of new Information Technology (IT) systems, has enabled the improved exchange of information between actors, a more effective registration of the arrival, transit and exit of goods, a centralised customs clearance and harmonised customs controls throughout the customs territory of the Union, thereby reducing administrative costs, red tape, error fraud in customs declarations and harmful port-shopping, as well as has enhanced economic activity and growth, and increased the safety and security of the EU citizens;

Paragraph 3 c (new)
Paragraph 3 c (new)
3c. Expresses its strong disappointment after taking stock of the conclusion of the report of the Court of Auditors no 26/2018 “A series of delays in Customs IT systems: what went wrong?” which states that there is a risk that the rescheduled deadlines will also not be met and that the UCC deadline could be further extended beyond 2025, and urges therefore the Commission and the Member States to do their outmost in order to avoid such a situation;
Amendment 52 #
Motion for a resolution
Paragraph 7 a (new)
Paragraph 7 a (new)
7a. Reminds that, according to the Court of Auditors, the Commission was aware of the delays but chose not to include this information in its official reporting, which prevented the stakeholders (such as the European Parliament, other EU institutions not represented in the governance structure of Customs 2020 as well as interested companies and citizens) from being fully informed of the risk of delays in real time; calls therefore on the Commission to regularly report on the progress made as regards to the setting-up of the customs electronic systems and inform about any possible future delays;
