Commission’s Opinion – EU acquis Chapter 14

Some level of preparation (2)

Ukraine has some level of preparation in the area of transport policy. The country needs to further align and effectively implement the acquis in all areas of transport and in particular in the railway sector, where appropriate administrative structures need to be set up. However, these reforms need to consider the vital role that transport plays in the current challenging context. Administrative capacity needs to be strengthened to ensure that the legislation and regulations are implemented, in particular as regards enforcement, inspection and investigation bodies for the different modes of transport.
