5As emerges from recital 3 to Regulation No 1013/2006, that regulation is intended – like Council Regulation (EEC) No 259/93 of 1 February 1993 on the supervision and control of shipments of waste within, into and out of the European Community (OJ 1993 L 30, p.1), which it replaced – also to ensure the implementation of the obligations arising under the Basel Convention on the control of transboundary movements of hazardous wastes and their disposal, signed on 22 March 1989, which was approved on behalf of the European Community by Council Decision 93/98/EEC of 1 February 1993 (OJ 1993 L 39, p. 1) (‘the Basel Convention’).
