(2)Directive (EU) 2016/1629 of the European Parliament and of the Councilnote refers to the latest CESNI standards laying down technical requirements for inland waterway vessels, namely European Standard laying down Technical Requirements for Inland Navigation vessels (‘ES-TRIN’). The CCNR also refers to the latest standards in its Rhine Regulations. Pursuant to Articles 22 and 23 of the Convention, the CCNR may adopt binding resolutions establishing technical requirements for inland waterway vessels in inland navigation of the Rhine. The technical standards to be adopted by CESNI will therefore be binding once the relevant binding resolutions of the CCNR make a reference to those technical standards.
