Summary: Regulation (EU) 2022/312 - formally signed by the co-legislators on 24 February 2022 - introducing amendments to Regulation (EU) 2020/1429 regarding the duration of the reference period for the application of temporary measures concerning the levying of charges for the use of railway infrastructure. This is a text with EEA relevance. Further information: Regulation (EU) 2020/1429 lays down temporary rules on the levying of charges for the use of railway infrastructure. The aim of this Regulation was to enable rail stakeholders to cope better with the financial consequences of the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic and to respond to their urgent liquidity need. The reference period was set and later twice extended. The power conferred to the European Commission to extend the reference period has in the meantime expired. The Regulation further extends the reference period until June 2022, and it empowers the Commission to adopted delegated acts to further extend such period until December 2023. It is also proposed that the delegation of power should end on the same date. The draft law was tabled by the European Commission on 22 December 2021. The Council of the European Union and the European Parliament formally signed the adopted Act on 24 February 2022, which was published in the Official Journal on 28 February 2022. |
