ANNEX 7
Annex 2, article 3, paragraph 11
Annex 7, part I, article 4, paragraph 11
Replace the existing text by the following wording:
“11. At the openings in the sheet, used for loading and unloading, the two surfaces shall be joined together. The following systems can be used:
(a) The two edges of the sheet shall have an adequate overlap. They shall also be fastened by:
(i) a flap sewn or welded in accordance with paragraphs 3 and 4 of this article;
(ii) rings and eyelets meeting the conditions of paragraph 8 of this article; the rings shall be manufactured of metal; and
(iii) a thong made of appropriate material, in one piece and unstretchable, at least 20 mm wide and 3 mm thick, passing through the rings and holding together the two edges of the sheet and the flap; the thong shall be secured inside the sheet and fitted either with
– and eyelet to take the rope mentioned in paragraph 9 of this article or
– an eyelet which can be attached to a metal ring mentioned in paragraph 6 of this article and be secured by the rope mentioned in paragraph 9 of this article.
A flap shall not be required if a special device, such as a baffle plate, is fitted, which prevents access to the load compartment without leaving obvious traces.
(b) A special locking system holding the edges of the sheets tightly locked when the load compartment is closed and sealed. The system shall be provided with an opening through which a metal ring mentioned in paragraph 6 of this article can pass and be secured by the rope mentioned in paragraph 9 of this article. Such a system is described in sketch No. 8. appended to this annex.
Description
In this locking system the two edges at the openings in the sheet used for loading and unloading are united by means of an aluminium locking rod. The sheet openings are provided with a hem over its entire length enclosing a rope (see sketch No. 8.1). This makes it impossible to pull the sheet out of the locking rod’s profile. The hem shall be on the outside and welded in accordance with annex 2, article 3, paragraph 4 of the Convention. The edges are to be passed into the open profiles on the aluminium locking rod and slid into two parallel longitudinal channels which should be closed at their lower end. When the locking rod is in its upper position the edges of the sheet are united. At the upper end of the opening the locking rod is stopped by a transparent plastic cap fixed by riveting to the sheet (see sketch No. 8.2). The locking rod consists of two sections, joined by a riveted hinge, to allow folding for easy fitting and removal. This hinge must be designed in such a way so as not to allow the removal of the swivel pin once the system is locked (see sketch No. 8.3.). At the lower part of the locking rod is an opening through which the ring passes. The opening is oval and of a size just sufficient to allow the ring to pass through it (see sketch No. 8.4). The TIR fastening rope will be pulled through this ring to secure the locking rod.“

Obstoječe besedilo se nadomesti z naslednjim:
“11. Ob odprtinah v ponjavi, ki rabijo za nakladanje in razkladanje, se morata oba robova stikati. V ta namen je mogoče uporabiti naslednje načine:
(a) Oba robova ponjave se morata zadovoljivo prekrivati. Poleg tega bosta pritrjena:
(i) s prešitim ali privarjenim zavihkom v skladu z določbama tretjega in četrtega odstavka tega člena;
(ii) s kovinskimi obročki ali očesci, ki so v skladu z zahtevami osmega odstavka tega člena; obročki bodo izdelani iz kovine; in
(iii) z jermenom, ki je iz enega kosa in izdelan iz ustrezne snovi, je neraztegljiv in vsaj 20 mm širok in 3 mm debel, pri čemer je ta jermen voden skozi obroče in drži skupaj oba robova ponjave in zavihek: jermen je pritrjen znotraj ponjave in opremljen bodisi
– z očescem, skozi katerega poteka žična vrv ali vrv, omenjena v devetem odstavku tega člena; ali
– z očescem, ki ga je mogoče pritrditi na kovinski obroček, ki je omenjen v šestem odstavku tega člena in zavarovati z vrvjo, omenjeno v devetem odstavku tega člena.
Zavihek ni potreben, če je nameščena posebna naprava, na primer plošča v obliki vodila, ki preprečuje dostop do tovorišča brez vidnih sledi.
(b) Posebni zasunski mehanizem, ki drži robove ponjave tesno skupaj, ko je tovorišče zaprto in carinsko označeno. Ta mehanizem mora imeti odprtino, skozi katero lahko teče kovinski obroč, omenjen v šestem odstavku tega člena, in ki ga je možno zavarovati z vrvjo, omenjeno v devetem odstavku tega člena. Takšen mehanizem je opisan na skici št. 8, ki je priložena tej prilogi.
Opis
Ta zasunski mehanizem združuje oba robova ob odprtinah v ponjavi za nakladanje in razkladanje s pomočjo zasuna v obliki palice iz aluminija. Ob odprtinah teče po celi dolžini roba šiv, v katerem je vrv (glej skico št. 8.1). Zato ponjavo ni mogoče potegniti iz prereza zasunske palice. Šiv mora biti na zunanji strani in varjen skladno z določbami četrtega odstavka 3. člena Priloge 2. h konvenciji. Robovi morajo iti v odprte profile zasunske palice iz aluminija in zdrsniti v dva vzporedna vzdolžna kanala, ki morata biti na njunem spodnjem koncu zaprta. Kadar je zasunska palica v zgornjem položaju so robovi ponjave združeni. Na gornjem koncu odprtine zasunsko palico ustavi prozorna plastična kapica, ki je s kovico pritrjena na ponjavo (glej skico št. 8.2). Zasunska palica sestoji iz dveh delov, spojenih z zakovičenim tečajem, da jo je mogoče zložiti za lažjo namestitev in snemanje. Ta tečaj mora biti izdelan tako, da ne omogoča odstranitve tečajnega sornika, ko je mehanizem v zaprtem položaju (glej skico št. 8.3). Na spodnjem koncu zasunske palice je odprtina, skozi katero sega obroček. Odprtina je ovalne oblike in komaj dovolj velika, da skoznjo sega kovinski obroček (glej skico št. 8.4). Pritrdilna vrv TIR se potegne skozi ta obroček, da se zavaruje zasunska palica.“

4. Minimalni pogoji in zahteve, ki so določeni zgoraj, ne vplivajo na dodatne pogoje in zahteve, ki bi jih želele predpisati pogodbenice.
II. del
DOVOLJENJE FIZIČNIM IN PRAVNIM OSEBAM ZA UPORABO ZVEZKOV TIR
Minimalni pogoji in zahteve
1. Minimalni pogoji in zahteve, ki jih morajo izpolnjevati osebe, ki želijo imeti dostop do postopka TIR so:
(a) dokazane izkušnje ali vsaj zmožnost za sodelovanje v rednem mednarodnem prevozu (imetnik licence za izvajanje mednarodnih prevozov, itd.);
(b) trdno finančno stanje;
(c) dokazano znanje glede izvajanja Konvencije TIR;
(d) odsotnost resnih ali ponovljenih kršitev carinske ali davčne zakonodaje;
(e) obveza dana združenju v pisni izjavi, da:
(i) bo oseba spoštovala vse carinske formalnosti, ki se zahtevajo na podlagi konvencije v odhodnih carinskih organih, prehodnih carinskih organih in namembnih carinskih organih;
(ii) bo oseba plačala zapadle zneske, omenjene v prvem in drugem odstavku 8. člena konvencije, če bodo to od nje zahtevali pristojni organi na podlagi sedmega odstavka 8. člena te konvencije;
(iii) bo oseba, v kolikor to nacionalne zakonodaje dovoljujejo, dovolila združenju preveriti podatke o zgoraj omenjenih minimalnih pogojih in zahtevah.
2. Pristojni organi pogodbenic in združenja sama lahko uvedejo dodatne in bolj zahtevne pogoje in zahteve glede dostopa do postopka TIR, razen če pristojni organi ne odločijo drugače.
Postopek
3. Pogodbenice bodo skladno z nacionalno zakonodajo določile postopke za dostop do postopka TIR na podlagi minimalnih pogojev in zahtev, določenih v prvem in drugem odstavku.
4. Pristojni organi bodo v roku enega tedna od dne izdaje dovoljenja ali preklica dovoljenja za uporabo zvezkov TIR poslale podatke o vsaki osebi izvršnemu odboru TIR skladno s priloženim vzorcem dovoljenja.
5. Združenje bo letno pošiljalo popoln seznam vseh oseb, ki jim je bilo dovoljenje izdano na dan 31. december, pa tudi seznam vseh oseb, katerim je bilo dovoljenje odvzeto. Ta seznam se pošlje pristojnim organom v roku enega tedna po 31. decembru. Pristojni organi bodo dvojnik tega seznama poslali izvršnemu odboru TIR.
6. Dovoljenje za dostop do postopka TIR samo po sebi ne predstavlja pravice, da se pri združenju pridobijo zvezki TIR.
7. Dovoljenje osebe, da uporabi zvezke TIR skladno z minimalnimi pogoji in zahtevami, ki so opredeljeni zgoraj, ne vpliva na odgovornost in obveznosti, ki jih ima ta oseba na podlagi konvencije.
