COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES 
C0M(92) 553 final - SYN 398 
Brussels, 15 December 1992 
Amended proposal for a 
COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 
amending Directive 70/220/EEC on the 
approximation of the laws of the Member States 
relating to measures to be taken against 
air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles 
(presented by the Commission pursuant to Article 149(3) 
of the EEC-Treaty) 
- 2 -
Explanatory Memorandum 
A. On 20 March 1992 the Commission sent to the Council a proposal for a 
directive amending Directive 70/220/EEC on the approximation of the laws 
of the Member States relating to measures to be taken against air 
pollution by emissions from motor vehicles. 
On 29 October 1992, the European Parliament approved the proposal in the 
first reading, subject to 10 amendments. The Commission accepts 3 of the 
proposed amendments with drafting changes. 
The first of these amendments clarifies the motivation of the present 
directive in referring to the likely increase in road transport in the 
Community. 
The second amendment draws the attention to the importance of research and 
development efforts in anti-pot lut ion technology for the competitiveness 
of the European automobile industry. 
The third amendment underlines the role of the Commission in adapting the 
Communities' emissions standards to the state of the art. 
The Commission has decided not to accept the other amendments, because the 
Commission believes it does not have objective industrial data to show 
that the standards proposed by Parliament can be met whit in the desired 
timescale using technologies which are available or being developed. 
B. The Commission therefore proposed to insert three new recitals in the 
legal part of the directive-

Amended proposal for a 
COUNCIL DIRECTIVE 
amending Directive 70/220/EEC on the 
approximation of the laws of the Member states 
relating to measures to be taken against 
air pollution by emissions from motor vehicles 
After the sixth recital the following new recitals are added: 
"Whereas it is generally agreed that future transport developments in the 
European Community will be accompanied by an increase in pollution of the 
environment; whereas it must be borne in mind that hitherto all official 
forecasts of increases in density of transport have been overshadowed by 
actual developments; whereas, therefore, stringent exhaust gas standards 
must be laid down for all motor vehicles; 
Whereas special R&D efforts concerning reduction in pollution of the 
atmosphere by motor vehicles may be a significant element in strengthening 
the comptetitiveness of the European automotive industry; 
Whereas the Commission evaluates periodically recent advances in science 
permitting a reduction in the limit values for pollution of the air by 
motor vehicles and, in consultation with its Expert Group on Motor Vehicle 
Emissions (MVEG), proposes measures for suitable further reductions."

Amended proposal for a Council Regulation (EC) on adjustments to the fisheries arrangments provided for in the Act of Accession of Spain and Portugal (1) (94/C 92/08) COM(94) 35 final - 94/0032(CNS)

(Submitted by the Commission pursuant to Article 189A (2) of the EC Treaty on 7 March 1994)

The text of the proposal is hereby amended as follows:

Third recital

Whereas the new provisions must facilitate the full integration of Spain and Portugal into the general scheme of the common fisheries policy and must fully comply with the acquis communautaire, especially the limits in force, and in particular with regard to the principle of relative stability and the exceptions to the principle of free access to waters as laid down by Council Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92; whereas, in addition, such adjustments must not result in an increase in fishing effort;

Fifth recital (new)

Whereas the adjustments must take account on a case-by-case basis of the geographical, geomorphological and biological conditions of each maritime region of the Community in order to contribute to the introduction of responsible fishing and to the preservation of the individual requirements of regions where the socio-economic development of the local populations is particularly dependent upon fishing and related industries;

Article 3 (2)

In accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 43 of the Treaty and within the framework of Articles 4 and 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92, the Council shall adopt by 31 December 1995 Community measures entering into force on 1 January 1996 laying down the conditions of access to fishing zones and resources and/or restrictions on exploitation by fixing fishing opportunities in terms of the authorized volume of catches and fishing effort, and technical measures to encourage the use of selective gear and methods of fishing.

Article 3 (3)

In compliance with the general principles of the common fisheries policy, and in particular relative stability, the application of Articles 4 and 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 must take account, in each case, of developments in fishing opportunities, without exceeding the levels of fishing effort laid down in Articles 158, 160, 164, 165, 349, 351 and 352 of the Act of Accession.

Article 4 (new)

For Community zones and resources other than those referred to in Article 3, with the exception of those subject on 31 December 1993 to quarantine restrictions on catches, the Council shall, in compliance with the general principles of the common fisheries policy, adopt in accordance with Articles 4 and 8 of Regulation (EEC) No 3760/92 the Community measures laying down conditions of access, including restrictions on exploitation taking account of fishing activities during a recent and representative period.

Article 5 (former Article 4)

All Community fishing vessels authorized to engage in fishing activities where the exploitation rate is restricted in accordance with Articles 3 and 4 must hold a fishing licence which fixes the conditions of access to those fisheries, granted and managed by the Member States whose flag the vessel is flying.
