[01] Période de tolérance pour le tachygraphe numérique
La Commission européenne a décidé de prolonger une dernière fois au 31Â
décembre 2005 la période de tolérance pour l'introduction du tachygraphe
numérique. Bien que la date limite d'introduction du tachygraphe ait été
reportée au 5 août 2005, une période de tolérance supplémentaire s'est
avérée nécessaire. Tous les Etats membres doivent reconnaître et
accepter juridiquement le tachygraphe numérique à partir du 5 août.
[02] Commission issues 2004 annual report on Macao
In its 2004 annual report on Macao the European Commission acknowledges
that the political situation in Macao in 2004 was marked by stability and
continuing consolidation as the Macao Special Administrative Region (MSAR).
The Commission welcomes the strength of Macao's economic performance and
the Macao Government's intention to preserve the MSAR's international role
by, in particular, strengthening its links with the European Union. In 2004
Macao underwent record economic development following the liberalisation of
the gambling sector and development of the tourist sector stimulated by the
adoption of a system facilitating the entry of tourists from the Peoples
Republic of China. The recent setting up of the Legal and Legislative
Reform Office, which will coordinate among other things the implementation
of measures to improve the operation of the MSAR's legal system and will
make the administration of justice more equitable. For more information on
