Since the objective of this Regulation, namely to improve the detection, investigation and prevention of customs-related fraud in the Union cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States but can rather, by reason of its scale or effects, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union.
Ós rud é nach féidir leis na Ballstáit cuspóir an Rialacháin seo, eadhon feabhas a chur ar bhrath, ar imscrúdú agus ar chosc calaoise a bhaineann le custaim san Aontas a ghnóthú go leordhóthanach ach gur féidir, de bharr a fhairsinge nó a éifeachtaí, é a ghnóthú níos fearr ar leibhéal an Aontais, féadfaidh an tAontas bearta a ghlacadh i gcomhréir le prionsabal na coimhdeachta a leagtar amach in Airteagal 5 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach.
