Rules in the form of national rules are also an essential tool for the management of shared national legacy systems (e.g. the CCS class B systems). The presence and enforcement of national rules preserves the benefits of national interoperability and prevents further national system diversity beyond the minimum needed during the transition to the target system. Furthermore, the absence or non-transparency of appropriate rules leads to unnecessary uncertainty, costs and safety risks. Since the scope extension of TSIs (with effect on 01 January 2015), a situation with too many, and sometimes contradictory or unjustified national rules is not acceptable. The “cleaning-up” of unnecessary national rules was therefore a fundamental and urgent action to remove technical regulatory barriers to the open market, international operation and interoperability. The Agency started beginning of 2016 a programme (see ERA programme plan ERA-PRG-006-PPL) where the Member States and the Agency worked together on the identification, evaluation and cleaning-up of national rules for vehicle authorisation in addition to the TSIs for vehicles in force. In order to carried-out this cleaning-up, the Member States were asked to : - Identify and withdraw the national rules covered by TSIs refered to in section 3.1.2, - Relate the national rules to the TSIs and to the new list of parameters (decision 2015/2299/EU), - Clearly identify the national rules that are not related to open point(s) nor specific case(s) to TSI requirements and specify if they complement/contradict/replace TSIs for technical compatibility with existing networks, - Ensure that the requirement is a mandatory rule. Acceptable national means of compliance in accordance to the definition in article 2 (34) of directive 2016/797 is not considered as a national rule, - Identify and analyse requirements that don’t relate to any of the above and
