The Committee on boatmasters’ certificates for the carriage of goods and passengers by inland waterway referred to in Article 11 of Directive 2005/44/EC has been abolished. In its place, the Inland Waterway Transport Committee, which possesses expertise in standards and technical specifications in the inland waterway sector, should assist the Commission in respect of RIS as a committee within the meaning of Regulation (EU) No 182/2011. Furthermore, this Directive introduces amendments to Articles 5 and 12 of Directive 2005/44/EC relating to the Committee procedure. Article 11 of Directive 2005/44/EC should therefore be amended to reflect those changes.
