European
Union:
- Technical rules for
interoperability and safety
-Internal regulation of
transport contracts
- Implementation of liberal
regulations for the rail
market.
OTIF

- Technical rules for
interoperability/dangerous
goods
- Technical rules for
interoperability and safety

Geographical vision of OTIF
Developing international regulations for railways
The Organisation
• The Convention concerning International Carriage
by Rail offers all interested nations and regional
organisations for economic integration a “neutral”
legal framework.
• OTIF has recently received interest from GCC
• Common approaches ease co-operation and
facilitate operations
• The development of a “law interface”
• A framework that offers legal and geographical
flexibility

OTIF Mission 1/3
The Organisation
• Legal department: developing private law that helps to define liability
regimes and contracts with CIT, UIP, UIC, OSJD and UNECE
• Technical department: ensuring technical compatibility for rolling stock
with CER, EU, ERA and UIC
• RID department: coordinating regulations on the international carriage
of dangerous goods EU, OSJD and ADR.
=> a coordination and interfacing role
OTIF
OTIF Mission 2/3
The Organisation
• The new OTIF regulations will entail operational consequences: ECM regulations will
have to be implemented correctly in order to allow freight trains in cross-border traffic
• There is a need for common understanding of principles and implementation
• OTIF will also have to rely on the States themselves to implement the UTP correctly
• OTIF therefore now has a new role, to exchange, collect and disseminate information
on the Member States' activities in the common interest.
=> The Organisation will have to develop a new monitoring role
OTIF
OTIF Mission 3/3
The Organisation
a young expert programme
underway
• The aim:
• Develop new competencies
• Carry out in-depth studies, both technical and legal
• Give an opportunity to young experts from non-EU Member States to
work on railway law
• The modalities:
• Request for candidates from prominent technical/legal university
• Definition of added value task

OTIF New opportunities 1/6
The Organisation
EU accession
to COTIF
• The EU’s accession to COTIF in July 2011 is an opportunity to develop uniform railway
law
• EU and OTIF have a complementary approach
• COTIF CIM and CIV are based on a contractual philosophy
• EU law is by nature public law
• With regard to technical regulation, OTIF has a bridging role, in order to ensure
interoperability on the largest possible scale
=> Development of OTIF relies on a consensus based approach
OTIF
OTIF New opportunities 2/6
The Organisation
Renewed relationship
with ERA
• ERA is developing safety and interoperability concepts and regulations under
the control of EU Member States and the Commission
• Defining priorities:
• A roadmap for the transposition of the TSI
• Setting up efficient working relations
• Upstream involvement of non EU contracting states
• Cooperation on registers
=> Final phase of negotiation of an AA with ERA and the
Commission

The
Relation with ERA:
theOrganisation
principles
• Regular management level meetings
• Developing rules of procedure for early involvement of OTIF
• Setting up a process for consultation of non-EU Member States
• Arrangement in order to coordinate vehicle registers and information
=> Ensure full compatibility and wider vision
OTIF
OTIF New opportunities 5/6
Organisation
Foster The
railway
industry
• Developing application of CIM and compatibility with OSJD rules will
contribute to developing freight traffic, in particular by incorporating part of
1520 technical regulations
• Secure railway investment by giving technical regulations a wider scope
• Uniform maintenance and approval procedures will facilitate the development
of industry
• Help the development of IT standards
=> Obtain input from our Contracting States to
improve regulations and develop technical standards
OTIF
OTIF New opportunities 6/6
Adapt location of OTIF toThe
newOrganisation
chalanges
• Need for more regular contacts - ad-hoc workshops and training sessions with Member States
• Reduce overheads for fostering expertise
• Closer work with ERA and non-EU Member States
• Attract high profile experts from a large spectrum of Member States and
organisations
• Ease travel and meeting organisation.
Define an optimal location
Foster efficiency and budget use through well positioned
headquarters.

The Organisation
Extension
of CUI
• Scope: contract of use of railway infrastructure for the purposes of international
carriage within the meaning of the CIV UR and the CIM UR
• Contract = basis for relations between infrastructure manager and carrier:
• liability of the infrastructure manager:
• for bodily loss or damage (death, injury or any other physical or mental harm),
• for loss of or damage to property (destruction of, or damage to, movable or
immovable property),
• For pecuniary loss resulting from damages payable by the carrier under the CIV
Uniform Rules and the CIM Uniform Rules
=> The application of CUI will be extended to provide
security for railway undertakings and infrastructure
managers
OTIF
OTIF New tasks 2/4
Redefinition of theThe
railOrganisation
facilitation
• Involvement of OTIF in the UNECE process for unified railway law:
• There is a need for general transport contracts (GTC)
• Interoperability issues must be addressed.
• A business oriented strategy involving our Member States in partnership with EU,
CIT and UIC:
• Identify tests on freight corridors: Asia/Middle East/EuroMediterranean area
• Review deficiencies and opportunity for development.
=> The
rail facilitation process could foster the
development of corridors with legal and technical
coordination

The Organisation
Standard contracts
for ECM
• The ECM regulations require exchanges of information between RU and ECM, even
though they may have no contractual relationship
• The RU remains in charge of safety
• GCU must be developed to take these matters into account
• CUV should be able to cope with these questions


OTIF
OTIF is the right place to develop within CUV a common
understanding in order to ensure that critical information
for safety and operation is available.
A new working group was created to modernise CUV with
input from EU, CER, UIP, UIC and NSAs

In a nutshell
EU  interoperability + opening of supply market +
competition between railway operators
Uninterrupted movement of trains across EU borders
(operating across borders under uniform rules, without changing train configuration or staff)
OTIF  Promote, improve and facilitate international traffic
Circulation of rail vehicles in more than one state
Applies only to international traffic
(The EU objectives are compatible, but also the exchange of vehicles at border crossing stations fits the
definition)
