The distinction between ticket vendors, which conclude transport contracts, and distributors, which are simple retailers that sell tickets without concluding any transport contract, is necessary to clarify the changes introduced by the Commission in Articles 9, 10 and 18 of the proposal and to take full account of the railway ticket market as it exists today.
Razlikovanje med prodajalci vozovnic, ki sklepajo pogodbe o prevozu, in distributerji, ki so zgolj posredniki, ki prodajajo vozovnice brez sklenjenih pogodb o prevozu, je potrebno, da se pojasnijo spremembe, ki jih uvaja Komisija v člene 9, 10 in 18 predloga, in da se v celoti upošteva današnji trg vozovnic v železniškem prometu.
