Competencies of the Designated Authority Sample Clauses

Competencies of the Designated Authority. The designated authorities for ROO matters are the national Customs Authorities responsible for Customs. Customs Authorities are best placed in any national administrations to deal practically with imports and export at the border or deal with import and export matters after the legal import/export formalities had been completed. Customs Authorities also have a sound relationship with all other national agencies and private sector groups, including importers and exporters in order for them to facilitate trade. Regular dialogue through meetings, training, seminars or public information dissemination in any form is to be provided by Customs Authorities and other national agencies. In respect to the enforcement of the ROO, all trade actors are to actively participate so as to ensure the proper functioning of the PICTA. The Secretariat of the ROC shall cause for the provision of PICTA ROO training at each PICTA Party at least once every 24 months. The method of such training may be in the form of actual training conducted by the Secretariat and the ROC or by the National Rules of Origin Committee in each national administration using materials supplied by the ROC Secretariat. In addition, the ROC will be responsible for providing technical and investigative assistance to the Parties in respect of the interpretation, implementation and operation of the Rules (see Article 5.6(d) of PICTA).
