Af hensyn til bilindustrien, siger man. Men læste direktøren for folkevognsfabrikken ikke avis i 1985, går oplysningerne kun den ene vej i Renault-fabrikkens informationsafdeling?
So I want to congratulate Mr Vittinghoff not only on the urgency shown in his report, but also for his admirable tenacity in the struggle for the reduction of the limit values to levels of maximum protection or, in other words, for the adoption of measures as strict as possible.
Hvorfor skal bilfabrikkerne have så lang tid til at for berede denne produktion af katalysatorer?
It is evident that these measures, as in the case of the catalytic converter, would involve an increase in the price of cars, a price increase which would be temporary and for which compensation could be provided in the form of tax incentives until the motor industry adapted to these requirements.
De produ cerer jo allerede biler, der opfylder de krav, Kommissionen først forlanger gennemført om fem år. Hvorfor har EF ikke for længst stillet de samme krav som USA, Schweiz, Østrig og Sverige.
This adaptation is not happening because there is excessive delay.
Vi er ligeledes enige med ordføreren om nødvendig heden af en yderligere sænkning af grænseværdierne for alle klasser af motorslagvolumcn. skrotning af køretøjer, der er over 12 år gamle, samt de i Bilag I fastsatte tidspunkter for tilladte grænseværdier.
I believe that, particularly where the protection of the environment is concerned, the citizens of the European Community, our constituents, expect us to ensure that the air throughout Europe becomes cleaner as quickly as possible and therefore to plead for the more stringent exhaust levels.
Det er desuden indlysende, at gennemførelsen af et autentisk indre marked kræver, at den mangfoldighed af forskellige bestemmelser og nugældende krav, der fin des i medlemsstaterne på dette område, afskaffes.
In view of the present state of the discussions in the Council and of what we have heard in the European Parliament, I personally feel that we of the European Parliament should demand more than the Commission has pro posed here.
Hvis man kan tro på Kommissionen egne beregninger, sparer bilindustrien 5,5 mia ECU i forbindelse med det indre marked. Var det ikke rimeligt, om bilindustrien fik lov at betale lidt af denne gevinst tilbage i form af et frisk pust til miljøet.
But the aim should be — and I want to make this very clear — to succeed after all in finding a solution by the end of the year that is acceptable to the majority and also to a qualified majority in the Council, so that we can at last close this file and say: these are the levels that apply in the future.
Af ovennævnte grunde stemmer vi for ændringsforslagene, der betyder større krav til det foreliggende forslag til direktiv for at beskytte miljøet og dermed forbrugernes, dvs. alle borgeres sundhed.
It is also evident that the achievement of an authentic internal market demands that an end be put to the multiplicity of different regulations and requirements in force in the Member States in this field.
I Danmark hilser vi det naturligvis velkommen, at man med Vittinghoff-betænkningen og Miljøudvalgets ændringsfoslag nærmer sig de grænser, vi hele tiden har kæmpet for i Danmark, men vi vil ikke vente, til træerne dør for øjnene af os.
For these reasons, we are voting in favour of the amendments which bring a greater urgency to this proposal for a directive to protect the environment and consequently the health of consumers, that is, of all our citizens.
Vi vil ikke vente, til der må opstilles iltmaskiner i København på samme måde. som de har i Tokyo.
VON WOGAU (PPE). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, at the beginning of this year it looked as if we would very soon have a decision on car exhaust gases.
Derfor har Danmark i sinde at benytte sig af den miljøgaranti, vi fik i forbindelse med pakkeafstemningen i 1986.
We have seen the decision-making pro cedure in the Council of Ministers greatly accelerated by the Single European Act.
Om en måned kommer et udvalg nedsat af den danske miljøminister med et forslag, der betyder, at Dan
For large and mediumsized cars there has been a decision from the Council,
Von Wogau (PPE). - (DE) Hr. formand, mine da mer og herrer, ved årets begyndelse så det ud til. at der meget snart ville blive truffet en afgørelse om automobilers udstødningsgas. Vi kan konstatere, at Ministerrådets beslutningsprocedure blev betydeligt
IVERSEN (COM). — (DA) Mr President, the Com munity's forbearance on the question of introducing maximum values for motor vehicle exhausts brings into focus the discussion on whether the Community is in danger of becoming a technologically underdeveloped region.
Von VVogau fremskyndet af Den Europæiske Fælles Akt.
In Ireland we have a huge market in second-hand cars.
For større og mellemstore køretøjers vedkommende blev der ret hurtigt truffet en afgørelse, og det så ud til at være muligt lige så hurtigt at få en løsning for de mindre køretøjers vedkommende.
The cost of such a measure would be very difficult for any government to bear, particularly in the light of our own national budgetary strategy.
kens ordlyd om at tilvejebringe miljømæssige standarder på et højt niveau bliver gjort til skamme.
becomes the outright loser. The wording of the EC package on setting environmental standards at a high level becomes a mockery.
Man sætter en proces i gang, hvor miljøkrav til stadighed må vige for kravet om varernes fri bevægelighed.
A process is set in motion in which environmental demands must always give way to the demand for the free movement of goods.
Resultatet af en sådan proces er dels et stadigt dårligere miljø, skovdød, syreregn m.v., men også at man teknologisk bliver kørt yderligere agterud i forhold til omverdenen, ikke mindst USA og Japan.
The result of such a process is not only a steady deterioration in the environment, the death of forests, acid rain etc., but also a further widening of the technological gap with the rest of the world, not least the United States and Japan.
På længere sigt kan man forestille sig, at EF bliver nødt til at lukke sig inde som et miljømæssigt teknologisk underudviklingsområde.
In the longer term it is possible to imagine an EC which has to stockade itself in as an underdeveloped area in environmental technology.
Vittingshoffs betænkning åbner nogle muligheder for at vende en sådan udvikling, men er desværre ikke tilstrækkelig vidtgående.
The Vittinghoff report offers some scope for reversing such a development but, unfortunately, it does not go far enough.
Bl. a. er den forudsætning, der fra dansk side stadig har været gjort gældende, nemlig nødvendigheden af at fastsætte separate værdier for kulbrinter og kvælstof oxider, ikke opfyldt.
Amongst other things, the requirement which has always been advocated by Denmark that separate values should be laid down for hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxides, is not included.
Dette krav er en forudsætning for at komme op på amerikanske emissionsstandarder. der.
This requirement is a precondition for matching the American emission standards.
Til sidst jeg spørge Dem, hr. kommissær, om man i Kommissionen har lavet nogle beregninger over, hvor meget miljøet bliver forurenet mere i EF-lande-ne frem til år 2 000 i forhold til EFTA-landene, som har gennemført de amerikanske emissionsstandarder.
Finally I would ask you, Commissioner, whether the Commission has done any calculations on how much more the environment will be polluted in the EC countries between now and the year 2000 compared with the EFTA countries, which have applied the American emission standards.
Har man i Kommissionen fundet ud af, hvor meget mere forurenet miljøet bliver her i EF end i EFTA-landene?
Has the Commission determined by how much the environment will be more polluted here in the Community than in the EFTA countries?
Jeg tror, det er meget interessant for borger ne i EF-landene at få det at vide, når de fremover skal tage stilling til, hvilken teknologi de skal vælge.
I think that would be very interesting for the citizens of the EC countries to know, when in future they have to decide what technology to favour.
Jeg vil nu gerne afgive en personlig erklæring.
On 28 June this report was submitted to Parliament for examination.
Men når vi så kommer ud for, at enkelte af Fællesskabets medlemsstater fragår tidligere indgående kompromiser, så kommer jeg til den opfattelse, at Parlamentet må overveje, til hvilken side det vil holde sig: Til danskernes, grækernes og nederlændernes side, som kræver strengere udstødningsgasværdier, eller til den side, der kræver mindre strenge grænseværdier for udstødningsgassen, som f. eks. franskmændene.
On 29 June the Environment Ministers met to discuss this issue and, without bothering to await Parliament's opinion, as has been remarked upon by various honourable Members, they reached a political agreement, a political agreement falling short of the standards that the Committee on the Environment was looking for, but a political agreement none the less.
Fitzsimons (RDE). — (EN) Hr. formand, vi har miljøet i vor varetægt på de kommende generationers vegne.
FITZSIMONS (RDE). — Mr President, we hold the environment in trust for future generations.
Det, der hidtil er sket, er ikke noget, vi kan være stolte af.
The record to date does us little credit.
Den menneskeskabte forurening både skader offentlighedens helbred, ødelægger store skov områder og giver øgede skader på historiske monumnter.
Manmade pollution is damaging public health, ravaging vast areas of forest and causing increased damage to historical monuments.
Sammenhængen mellem atmosfærens kul tveilteindhold, drivhuseffekten og de vejrmæssige forhold verden over giver grund til alvorlig bekymring.
The links between carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the greenhouse effect and worldwide weather conditions are cause for serious alarm.
Vore bestræbelser på at beskytte ozonlaget er totalt utilstrækkelige.
Our efforts to protect the ozone layer are totally inadequate.
Alt dette er faktorer, som bidrager til at sænke den miljømæssige standard, og som må forstås, for at vi kan få gennemført en effektiv miljøpolitik.
All factors which contribute to a worsening of the quality of our environment must be understood so that we can implement an effective environmental policy.
I betragtning af den nuværende forhandlingssituation i Ministerrådet og ligeledes i betragtning af det, vi har hørt i Europa-Parlamentet, er jeg personlig af den mening, at vi Europa-Parlamentet bør nå frem til en position, der kræver mere end foreslået af Kommissionen.
The manufacturer in question, despite selling vehicles meeting more stringent standards in other parts of the world, was critical of the technologies proposed by the Commission.
Dog med det mål — det vil jeg gerne sige helt klart — at det inden udgangen af året lykkes os at finde en løsning, som er acceptabel for flertallet og for et kvalificeret flertal i Rådet, således at vi omsider kan afslutte denne sag og sige : Det er de tal, der gælder for fremtiden.
In particular, it des cribed the catalyst as a big, inefficient syringe. This comment prompted the French Environment Minister to observe a few days later: 'Listening to this firm's chairman and managing director, you would think that dirtiness was a French virtue and cleanness a Ger-
Skønt forslagene fra Kommissionen om foranstaltninger mod luftforurening forårsaget af udstødningsgasser fra motorer og motorkøretøjer med et slagvolumen på under 1,4 liter er kommet meget sent. er de alligevel velkomme.
While measures proposed by the Commission against air pollution by gases from engines and motor vehicles with an engine capacity of less than 1.4 litres have come very late in the day, they are nonetheless welcome. come.
Iversen (COM). — Hr. formand, EF's langmodighed i spørgsmålet om iværksættelse af grænseværdier for bilers udstødningsgas sætter fokus på diskussionen om, hvorvidt EF risikerer at blive teknologisk underviklet område.
This perhaps somewhat disillusioned remark pinpoints — with telling accuracy, in my view — the nature of this debate, which is not a technical but a commercial debate. When it comes down to it, that is what it is all about.
Forslagenes indvirkning på prisen for biler med et slagvolumen på under 1,4 liter er et centralt punkt, når det gælder om at få den foreslåede foranstaltning til at bære frugt.
The impact of proposals on the price of cars with an engine capacity below 1.4 litres is central to the success of the proposed measure.
Det argument, der er blevet fremsat, om at Kommissionens forslag vil betyde en merpris på 5% for de mindre velstillede bilkøbere, kan man ikke se bort fra.
The argument put forward that Commission proposals will impose a 5% burden on the less well-off purchasers of cars cannot be ignored.
Men modargumentet om, at de besparelser, det indre marked betyder for bilfabrikanterne, måske i praksis dækker prisforhøjelsen, må også tages i betragtning.
However, the counter-argument that the savings to car manufacturers brought about by the inter nal market may in fact cover the increase in prices must be evaluated.
Jeg kan ikke støtte det ændringsforslag, som er blevet stillet af ordføreren, om at medlemslandenes regeringer bør yde tilskyndelser for at give køberne af nye biler mulighed for at skrotte deres gamle køretøjer.
Roelants du Vivier ensure that poor technology remains in use for many years to come and make the car industry, including the French, uncompetitive in the world market for years to come, because — thank God — other countries are doing far more than we are to improve the protection of the environment.
vil revidere — foranlediger nogle til at sige: »Grænseværdierne inden for Det Europæiske Fællesskab skal være bundværdier.
Single Act — is to work on the basis of a high level of protection, and that means strict environmental standards.
Så kan hver enkelt medlems stat i øvrigt gøre, hvad den vil.« Altså på en vis måde, farvel til det store samlede marked.
But the attitude adopted by certain motor manufacturers or the about-turn performed by the French Government — I hope it is going to change its mind again — will lead people to think: 'Standards in the European Community must be threshold standards, above which each Member State is free to do as it chooses'.
Vi har i Irland et stort marked for brugte biler. De omkostninger, der ville være forbundet med en sådan foranstaltning, ville være svære at bære for nogen regering, specielt på baggrund af vor egen, nationale budgetstrategi.
That, in a way, would mean goodbye to the single market.
Det forekommer os vigtigt at vedtage Vittinghoffbetænkningen. Jeg tror, at så at sige samtlige grupper er enige om de i denne indeholdte forslag, men Ministerrådet bør mindes om, at respekten for muljøet er blevet en drivkraft, en motor — det er måske det rette billede i denne forbindelse — for udviklingen på lige fod med de tekniske præstationer.
It is essential, in my opinion, that we improve the Commission's proposal, and I should like to know from the Council — which is unfortunately still not in attendance — if it is prepared to amend its first resolution along the lines of a perhaps better resolution adopted by this Parliament, so that we may bring this first reading to a reasonable conclusion.
Vi vil derfor støtte Kom missionens forslag.
We now consider it essential to vote the Vittinghoff report.
Weber (S). — (DE) Hr. formand, mine damer og her rer, vi befinder os i øjeblikket på to måder i en absurd situation.
WEBER (S). — (DE) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, at the moment we are in an absurd situation in two respects.
Vi forbereder os til det indre marked, dvs. vi prøver på at nå frem til, at Det Europæiske Fællesskab verden over konkurrerer med de andre lande på højeste tekniske niveau, og så fastslå vi her. at der i de kommende år ikke skal ske nogen teknisk udvikling inden for automobilkonstruktion i forbin delse med beskyttelsen mod udstødningsgas.
We are preparing ourselves for the inter nal market, which means that we are trying to ensure that the European Community can compete with other countries at the highest technological level, and we are saying here that there need not be any kind of technological advance in car manufacturing, that is, in protection against car exhaust gases, in the next few years.
Dermed indskrænker vi handlingsmulighederne og kreativiteten hos dem, der inden for automobilbygning netop skulle beskæftige sig med disse ting.
By so doing, we are restricting the scope for act ion and the creativity of those in the car industry who would be looking into just such matters.
Roelants du Vivier (ARC). — (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, den 21. juni i år vedtog Udvalget om Miljøog Sundhedsanliggender og Forbrugerbeskyttelse for en stor del — det skal siges — takket være hr. Vittinghoffs arbejde, beslutsomhed og overbevisning en betænkning om mindre motorkøretøjers udstødningsgas. gas.
BOMBARD (S). — (FR) Mr President, ladies and gentlemen, the Vittinghoff report marks progress towards the cleaner car. I merely wish to point out that, as the report's title indicates, the rapporteur has sought to tidy up the situation regarding cars with engine capacity of less than 1.4 litres, but in the amendments he has tabled to the Commission's text, the 1.4 litre category is the only one not included.
Den 28. juni blev betænkningen indgivet til Parlamentet, og den 29. juni samledes miljøministrene for at drøfte spørgsmålet.
I have therefore asked him to align the date for con version of cars below 1.4 litres with that specified for cars of between 1.4 and 2 litres.
Den anden absurde situation er, at det i fjor i Den Fælles Akt blev bestemt, at vi skulle lægge os på et højt miljøbeskyttelsesniveau inden for Fællesskabet.
The second absurd situation is that only last year it was laid down in the Single Act that we intend to maintain a high level of environmental protection in the Community.
Jeg tror, at det havde været bedre at beslutte, at vi ville have et højt miljøsnavsniveau.
I think we would have done better to decide that we intended to maintain a high level of pollution.
Ganske vist har vi i de senere år med relativt godt resultat indledt bestræbelser på at reducere svovldioxydniveauet, men der sker fremdeles en stigning for nitrogenoxydernes vedkommende, som fører til graverende miljøskader inden for visse felter.
Although the start made on efforts to reduce sulphur dioxide has been relatively successful in recent years, there has been a continued increase in nitrogen oxides, which do serious damage to the environment in various respects.
Nogle dage senere slog den franske regering bak under pres fra en fransk automobilfabrik.
CLINTON DAVIS, Member of the Commission. — Mr President, in your contribution from the floor you made a very interesting and arresting proposition, namely that some politicians could usefully have a catalytic converter applied to their mouths.
Den pågældende fabrik kritiserede den af Kommissionen fore slåede teknik samtidig med at samme fabrik i andre verdensdele sælger køretøjer, der opfylder endnu strengere normer.
I just won der why you confined it to politicians because in one particular instance, to which reference has been made in this debate, I would have thought it might usefully be applied to an industrialist as well.
Fabrikken anser katalysatoren for at være »en stor ineffektiv sprøjte«, en udtalelse, som nogle dage senere fik den franske miljøminister til at sige : » Når man lytter til denne fabriks general direktør, får man indtrykket af, at svineri er en fransk dyd og renlighed en germansk last«.
The point made by a number of honourable Members about developments since the last Council is certainly worthy of further comment and I shall be turning to that in a moment or two.
Inden for disse to sektorer skal vi altså hurtigst muligt træffe en fornuftig afgørelse, og linjen herfor er skitseret af ordføreren.
In these two areas, then, we must take a reasonable decision as a matter of urgency, and this decision has been outlined by the rapporteur.
De, der argumenterer med udgifterne, har ikke foretaget nogen alvorlig sammen ligning af udgifterne til miljøbelastningen på den ene side og de faktiske udgifter til nedsættelse af ud stødningsgassen på den anden.
Anyone who argues that it is all too expensive has still not made a serious comparison of, say, the cost of pollution and the actual cost of reducing exhaust gases.
Der kan bruges for skellige former for teknik. Selv katalysatoren er ikke så dyr, som det påstås.
Various me thods can be used.
På de sidste møder med interesserede fra Udvalget om Økonomi, Valutaspørgsmål og Industripolitik har vi hørt entydige erklæringer, hvorefter udgifterne højst er halvt så store, som påstået af nogle.
At recent meetings attended by members of the Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs and Industrial Policy we have heard it said loud and clear that the costs are at the most half as high as some people suggest.
Endvidere findes der nye tekniske metoder, hvormed disse udgifter yderrligere kan bringes ned.
And there are new techniques that could reduce these costs even further.
Visse europæiske fabrik ker ønsker markedsandele i et meget kortfristet per spektiv.
So the question of cost cannot really be the decisive argument.
Visse europæiske automobilfabrikkers holdning eller den franske regerings kursændring — som jeg håber den
What we urgently need — as Mr Vittinghoff has just made abundantly clear — is an update of the old decisions because, as they stand, they will
Weber de. der i langt højere grad end os er interesseret i en bedre miljøbeskyttelse.
Clinton Davis the framework of the conditions for its implementation and further evolution.
Parlamentet erindrer, at man i aftalen fastsatte sådan ne normer for biltyper over 2 liter og mellem 1,4 og 2 liter, mens man for de små bilkategorier blot fast satte midlertidige normer — det fremgik klart af aftalen. len.
The House will remember the agreement establishing such standards for the car categories above 2 litres and between 1.4 and 2 litres nonetheless confined itself as far as the small car category was concerned to the establishment of interim standards — that was clear in the agree ment.
Bombard (S). — (FR) Hr. formand, kære kolleger, Vittinghoff-betænkningen er et fremskridt for den renlige vogn.
It is my firm view that this proposal represents the best available compromise from the point of view of the environment, the consumer and the industry.
Jeg har derfor anmodet ham om at tilpasse ændringsdatoen for køretøjer med motorslagvolumen mindre en 1,41 efter den, der er fastsat for vogne mellem 1,4 og 21.
I, therefore, very much hope that in its opinion Parlia ment will support the Commission proposal — a plea that was echoed by Mr Fitzsimons in his contribution today.
I overensstemmelse med forpligtelsen til at fremsætte et passende forslag om endelige normer for den på gældende biltype, undersøgte Kommissionen de for skellige valgmuligheder, som forekom at være mulige rent teknisk, med specielt henblik på de væsentligste principper i Luxembourg-aftalen. Jeg må minde Par lamentet om disse hovedprincipper.
In compliance with the commitment to establish an appropriate proposal for the definitive standards for the car category concerned, the Commission examined the different options which appeared possible from the technical point of view with a particular regard to the main principles of the Luxembourg Agreement.
For det første skulle virkningen på miljøet svare til de amerikanske normer. For det andet skulle der være en teknologisk valgmulighed, og for det tredje skulle målet kunne nås med moderate udgifter.
First of ail, there was the equivalence of the environmental effect with that of the United States' standards.
Jeg har her i eftermiddag hørt visse medlemmer sige, at udgiftsargumentet ikke holder.
I have heard from some honourable Members tonight that the cost argument does not stand up.
