Formanden. - Hr. Crowley Jeg har ikke modtaget nogen anmodning herom.
In this light, a real reduction in the levels of sulphur and aromatic compounds - notably benzene - allowed in relation to the levels currently recorded must come top of the research list.
(Formanden erklærede de to ændrede fælles holdninger for godkendt)
Paisley (NI). - Madam President, it is essential to have tough targets for reductions in car emission limits.
Alle har forstået det problem, som vi står over for, og som skyldes, at Rådet har været flere år om at fremsende den fælles holdning efter vores førstebehandling. Jeg tror, at dette er ondets rod. Alle er godt klar over dette.
Whilst the modern car is 40 times cleaner than its equivalent in the 1980s, air quality will be greatly en hanced by the implementation of the proposals before the House.
Jeg ville gerne høre formanden for Udvalget om Miljø- og Sundhedsanliggender og Forbrugerbeskyttelse, hr. Ken neth Collins, naturligvis hvis han accepterer dette.
As a source of renewable energy, biofuels or oxygenated compounds from plants - ester from vegetable oil incor porated in diesel oil, or ethanol derivative incorporated in petrol - can provide a suitable response to the problems of pollution immediately, particularly in sensitive urban areas, whilst limiting the greenhouse effect whose effects were highlighted at the Kyoto conference in December 1997.
Betænkning (A4-0030/98) af K. Collins for Udvalget om Miljø- og Sundhedsanliggender og forbrugerbeskyttelse om forslag til Rådets forordning (EF) om ændring af forordning (EØF) nr. 1210/90 af 7. maj 1990 om oprettelse af Det Europæiske Miljøagentur og Det Europæiske Miljøoplysnings- og Miljøovervågningsnet (KOM(97)0282 - C4-0363/97-97/0168(SYN)
Finally, the agricultural sector can benefit from this im portant channel of diversification by producing renewable raw materials for the production of biofuels, and this could contribute to preserving an important use for rural areas. The production of renewable raw materials should be considered as an economically viable activity for agriculture and can contribute to changing the negative image some people may have of agricultural activities in terms of respect for the environment.
(Forslaget til lovgivningsmæssig beslutning vedtoges)
The development of biofuels will respond to the needs of the cities, whilst also fa
Collins, Kenneth (PSE), formand for Udvalget om Miljø- og Sundhedsanliggender og Forbrugerbeskyttelse. - (EN) Fru formand, jeg må sige, at man ikke kan andet end beundre fru Bloch von Blottnitz for hendes ihærdighed.
Along with my two colleagues from Northern Ireland, I recently brought a representative of a company in North ern Ireland to meet Commission officials about a new product which can significantly reduce emission levels now, with the additional benefit of reducing overall fuel consumption.
Uden at komme nærmere ind på detaljerne i sagen kan man sige, at problemet ligger i forretningsordenens artikel 72 og 62.
This shows the concern in Northern Ireland to ensure action is taken on this issue as quickly as possible.
Den relevante del af artikel 62 fastslår, at »hvis den problemstilling, som forslaget vedrører, i væsentlig grad ændres som følge af tidens gang eller ind-
I welcome the initiative of those in my constituency who are proactively working on developing a product to meet the necessary stringent demands of European legislation. lation.
Efter min mening drejer det sig ikke om at acceptere, at man truer med at nedlægge ar bejdspladser, men blot om at bekræfte ønsket om at be vare industriens konkurrenceeevne inden for en sektor, der er udsat for skarp konkurrence på verdensplan.
every year it is of course going to take years before the in novations to engines and exhaust systems take full effect: hence the necessity for an immediate improvement in fuel quality which has a direct effect on the whole stock of motor vehicles.
Bonde, Sandbæk, Jensen, Lis og Krarup (I-EDN), skriftlig. - Vi kan støtte initiativet om at øge kontrollen med fødevarer i produktionen og på bestemmelsesstedet.
This report will really shed light on the technical progress of the European car industry, especially in the area of en gine output.
Det er dog vigtigt, at denne kontrol ikke sker i stedet for en kontrol ved grænserne.
Our desire to legislate in this area is legitimate.
Jeg mener, at man bør tage tre parametre i betragtning, nemlig omkostningerne, effektiviteten og konkurrence evnen, og så anvende disse bedst muligt inden for de fast satte frister.
As for the specific problems of the on board diagnostic systems, there is a concern that such systems could be used by the vehicle manufacturers to restrict, by means of secret codes, the maintenance and repair of cars to those who have access to these codes.
Indstilling ved andenbehandling af Hautala (A4-0038/98)
An increase in these standards would lead to a rise in the costs borne by the consumer.
Cushnahan (PPE), skriftlig. - (EN) Beklageligvis kan jeg ikke støtte alle henstillingerne i denne betænkning på grund af de underforståede omkostninger for de irske for brugere.
This, in turn, would decrease the chances of the renewal of cars on the roads today, which are already too old throughout the world.
Jeg vil også gerne pege på, at Irland allerede opererer in den for de gældende grænseværdier, selvom jeg er sikker på, at vi stadig ønsker at forbedre dette, hvis den økonomiske byrde ikke bliver for stor.
We must also devise a financial plan of action to increase the proportion of younger cars on the roads throughout Europe: this would benefit both employment and the en vironment.
Både Kommissionens og Rådets beslutning vedrørende grænseværdierne for svovlindhold i benzin og diesel er dog langtfra det, der er muligt og ønskeligt.
Fayot (PSE), in writing. - (DE) These two reports set out the European Parliament's view of the Auto-Oil pro gramme drawn up by industry and the Commission.
Det er derfor med skuffelse, at vi konstaterer, at Parlamentets ordfører, Hautala, har set sig tvunget til at indgå kompromis om de værdier, som Rådet har foreslået.
The point of this programme is to determine the best possible fuel mixture together with secondary technical measures in the manufacture and maintenance of car engines in or der to maintain clear air.
Diez de Rivera Icaza (PSE), skriftlig. - (ES) Stemmeafgivningen fra en part fra Unionens sydlige del overrasker mig, fordi ingen fremkom med et eneste argument til støtte for denne negative holdning under forhandlingerne i aftes.
Earlier requirements on industry, such as in the introduction of catalytic converters, clearly showed that if the re quirements are clear, industry adapts to the reality and converts its production to meet the requirements.
Denne holdning brillerede ved sit fravær.
That is also going to be the case for emission requirements for new vehicles.
Hvor for?
In this case, demands for binding legislation are justified.
Jeg holder fast ved argumenterne til fordel for min stemme.
This is one of the areas of environmental policy in which EU decisions could have a major impact.
Desuden mener vi, at de meget strenge forslag om aromater, som trods kompromiset om svovlindhold er uændrede, er vildledende.
In the EU at this time, there are about 200 million cars of all different varieties.
Vi mener, at grænseværdierne for svovl er meget vigtigere og frygter, at Parlamentets be slutning giver et forkert signal til olieindustrien, som ikke er den rigtige prioritering, når det gælder sundhed og miljø.
They represent an enormous burden on the environment, now as well as in the future, and they reveal the great economic concerns which have arisen with the vehicles.
Elmalan (GUE/NGL), skriftlig. - (FR) På anmodning af Europa-Parlamentet og Rådet vedtog Kommissionen det såkaldte »autoolie-program« for at forbedre luftkvaliteten ved at gøre vejtransporten mindre forurenende i de kom mende år.
Nicholson (PPE), in writing. - This is a welcome report which underscores our endeavours to reduce pollution.
Kommissionen har til dette formål fremlagt to direktiver, der tager sigte på dels at mindske bilernes emissioner og dels at forbedre kvaliteten af motorbrændstofferne. stofferne.
Reducing environmental destruction is one of the priorities of the British Presidency and so it is timely that we are discussing this report now.
Caudron (PSE), skriftlig. - (FR) Jeg har studeret be tænkningen af vores kollega Heidi Hautala opmærksomt.
There has therefore been intensive lobbying activity relating to Mr Lange's reports, particularly by the car industry and the fuel producers.
Jeg vil gerne lykønske hende for omfanget af hendes ar bejde.
In my opinion, these reports represent no acceptable compromise between environmental policy and economic interests.
Jeg er dog tilbøjelig til at tage en vis afstand til nogle bestemmelser, som jeg finder en smule maksimalistiske, og det på trods af den vigtighed Jeg tillægger mil jøbeskyttelsen.
In Parliament there is a broad consensus, representative of the views of the public, that damage to the environment caused by vehicle emissions must be severely reduced.
Jeg er således ikke enig i de specifikationer, som ordføreren foreslår, for fabrikanternes udgifter ville være alt for høje i forhold til den gavn, miljøet ville få af specifikationerne.
The motor industry themselves accept that there must be improvement and it is a welcome sign that their arguments have moved on to the detail of time scales for re ducing pollution.
Under førstebehandlingen vedtog Europa-Parlamentet en lang række ændringer, der tager sigte på at styrke de normer, som blev foreslået af Kommissionen. Rådet fast holdt en del af disse, uden dog at gå så vidt som til at over tage de forpligtende bestemmelser, som Europa-Parlamentet forlangte for år 2005.
Mr Lange rightly emphasizes the need for coherent ex haust gas legislation, Euro-3, with the deadline of 2000 for the first stage, A, and 2005 for the second stage, B. In dustry is said to be complaining about the excessively high costs of conversion to new higher values; not in cluded in these are of course the entire economic costs and the harmful emissions which are bad for the health of the people.
Vi skal således beholde de forslag, der fremsættes i auto olie-programmet, nemlig dem, der fastlægger nogle be stemmelser på kort sigt.
I am also convinced that high environmental standards present technical and economic challenges to industry.
Og det er vigtigt at føre disse for slag ud i livet.
Since 8 % of the overall motor vehicle fleet is renewed
Vi befinder os i øjeblikket på andenbehandlingens stadium for at nå frem til en enighed om Rådets fælles hold ning.
I have recently been involved in assisting a Northern Ireland organization,
Vores medborgere oplever alt for ofte Europa som fjern eller bureaukratisk. I dag kan Europa, med hensyn til et fremtidsemne, der vedrører os alle i dagligdagen, give folket forhåbninger og flertallet velfærd og fremskridt.
As all too often is the case, a certain number of voices were raised in the name of defending employment and competitiveness against standards going as far as possible.
Jeg går ind for at styrke de foranstaltninger, der gør det muligt at mindske forureningen og forbedre luftkvaliteten.
which is trying to develop a European market for an emission-reducing additive, in finding its way around the maze of Commission bureaucracy.
Men jeg mener, at visse af Miljøudvalgets ændringsforslag ikke tager tilstrækkeligt højde for de økonomiske og sociale aspekter.
The additive is widely used elsewhere and has recently been positively assessed by experts at Queen's University, Belfast.
Anvendelsen af disse forslag risikerer at medføre store omkostninger og nedlæggelse af arbejdspladser. pladser.
We are well aware that the Commission cannot approve or endorse any individual products but I believe that means should be sought whereby it can be made easier for those working in this field to have their products assessed with a minimum of bureaucracy.
Efter min mening repræsenterer Rådets fælles holdning en passende balance mellem behovet for en bedre miljø beskyttelse og bevarelsen af arbejdspladserne, som nogle alt for strenge og alt for dyre foranstaltninger risikerer at bringe i fare.
Looking first at the car industry, which is of great impor tance for employment and our economies, technological innovation is imperative and it also represents an opportunity.
Jeg foreslår ligeledes, at der træffes nogle foranstaltninger for at fremskynde udskiftningen af de ældste biler og for at fremme forskningen, navnlig med hensyn til motorernes konstruktion, en forbedring af motorernes vedligeholdelse og anvendelsen af nye brændstoffer. stoffer.
Moreover, we must pay tribute to the efforts and the results which have been achieved for some time now by the manufacturers. They know that environmental quality will be a decisive stake, as much in terms of world competition as in terms of the expectations of buyers.
Kommissionens forslag er ikke tilstrækkeligt vidtgående og må skærpes.
Recommendation for second reading (A4-0038/98) Hautala and (A4-0043/98) Lange
Ligesom i Langes be tænkning skal grænseværdier og tider være obligatoriske for årene 2000 og 2005, og undtagelserne skal være meget strenge.
But this can only really be justified by a significant technological change of course towards cleaner and safer cars.
Gahrton, Holm og Lindholm (V), skriftlig. - (SV) Det bedste for miljøet og for indbyggerne i EU-landene og i verden havde naturligvis været, at Europa-Parlamentets forslag ved førstebehandlingen var blevet vedtaget.
Darras (PSE), in writing. - (FR) These two reports are absolutely inextricable since there is a close technical connection between engines and fuel and this explains my joint explanation of vote.
For svovl bør det være 30 mg/kg for både benzin og diesel.
The clarity of the framework and of the objectives acts as a guarantee for manufacturers.
Ved denne andenbehandling er ordføreren også blevet tvunget til at ændre en del af kravene, specielt efter pres fra de konservative partigrupper i Europa-Parlamentet, for at kunne opnå det nødvendige flertal i plenum.
The European Parliament must be consistent and strengthen its vote from first reading.
Forslaget er derfor ikke det absolut optimale ud fra vores ud gangspunkt, men alligevel klart acceptabelt.
It is essential that fuels are 'depolluted' and that the sulphur content is re duced.
Jeg opfatter ordførerens forslag som realistisk og fuldt gennemførligt, hvorfor det kan få stor miljøpolitisk be tydning.
We must go further than the Council's common position and demand mandatory, not indicative limits for emissions in 2005. This is what will improve air quality.
des Piaces (I-EDN), skriftlig. - (FR) I den offentlige me ning i Frankrig og Europa er man opmærksom på de konsekvenser, som de forurenende emissioner fra biler har for helbredet.
In line with this, we must call for a similar effort from car manufacturers.
For at mindske denne forurening skal man både forbedre motorernes teknik og styrke normerne for brændstoffer.
From the year 2000, all cars must be equipped with on board diagnostic systems, whilst manufacturers must also monitor the conformity of services.
Dagens afstemning viste tydeligt, at kompromiset i Europa-Parlamentet har en meget stor støtte.
European institutions must give greater attention to the pollution caused by the number of old cars on the road.
Forhåbentlig påvirker resultatet også Rådet og Kommissionen til at op give deres modstand mod Europa-Parlamentets forslag.
So in this sense, a meaningful improvement in petrol quality is an important point, and the proposals in the report by Mrs Hautala alone would bring about a reduction of over 20 % in car pollution.
Vi forudsætter, at den svenske regering i Ministerrådet stiller sig bag og stemmer for Europa-Parlamentets krav.
Improvements in petrol affect both new and old vehicles.
Lienemann (PSE), skriftlig. - (FR) Forbedringen af ben zinkvaliteten vil straks få en stor indflydelse på miljøet. Fru Hautalas forslag vil reducere forureningen fra biler med mere end 20 %.
Lienemann (PSE), in writing. - (FR) I am in favour of the two reports by Mrs Hautala and Mr Lange as they represent a coherent and ambitious response to the problem of car pollution.
Tilføjelsen af biobrændstoffer gør det nemlig muligt straks at mindske forureningen, da de ikke indeholder no get svovl, og da de er i stand til at forbedre forbrændingen. gen.
But I believe that the European Union should also look into the support which the Member States could provide to help get rid of old vehicles on the road which are severe pollutants.
For landbrugssektoren udgør produktionen af vedvarende råstoffer beregnet til fremstilling af biobrændstoffer en vigtig mulighed for diversificering, der gør det muligt at udnytte landområderne.
It affects our planet and the health and quality of life of millions of Europeans. Our developed societies must put into use all their scientific and technological know-how and make available the necessary financial means in the name of this cause.
Af disse forskellige årsager har jeg, ligesom størstedelen af mine kolleger, stemt ja til at styrke normerne for brændstoffer, hvilket således vil muliggøre en udvikling af biobrændstofferne, men naturligvis kun såfremt Den Europæiske Union vil acceptere, at medlemsstaterne kan
At first reading, Parliament rightly indicated its intention to toughen standards by the year 2000, both for petrol and for exhaust gas emissions, along with its commitment to establishing a restrictive framework for 2005.
Vi kan ikke acceptere udtalelserne fra de store oliefirmaer, der vil bilde deres ansatte ind, at de må lukke nogle raffinaderier, fordi vores instanser vil forlange at få nogle strenge normer.
During the conciliation which could take place following the vote, we should also closely examine the two questions of the durability of the standards imposed and mon itoring in use, taking into account the prospect of an accelerated renewal of cars.
De beregninger, som disse virksomheder har foretaget, er tydeligvis sat for højt.
The new procedures we have retained will also help create jobs in sectors such as chemistry, catalysis, etcetera.
Alle berørte plan lægningsafdelinger og ministerier sætter de medførte om kostninger betydeligt lavere.
This phenomenon has already been observed with the introduction of standards for leadfree petrol and the catalytic converter.
De ved også godt, at verdensmarkedet for benzin ikke længere vil kunne undgå denne udvikling (som allerede er i gang i De Forenede Stater).
Reding (PPE), in writing. - (DE) With increasing numbers of cars in Europe and increasing air pollution, the re duction of exhaust gases is quite definitely in the interest
Anvendelsen af køretøjer, der opfylder nogle nye tekniske normer, vil kun kunne have en gradvis effekt på mellemlangt sigt, som vil svare til den gradvise ud skiftning af bilparken i medlemsstaterne i Den Europæiske Union.
It has also been proven that diesel oil has an important role to play in reducing exhaust emissions from diesel engines.
Afslutningsvist er det vigtigt at understrege, at denne virksomhed er en af de virksomheder med flest ansatte i alle de portugisisktalende lande, og at dens aktiviteter er væsentlige for disse landes økonomi, et forhold, som Den Europæiske Union ikke kan være fremmed over for.
Against this it must be said that a few years ago the industry resisted the catalytic converter, but these are to be found in all new cars.
Brugen af brændstoffer, der opfylder nogle mere miljø venlige normer, vil til gengæld have en omgående virk ning.
The reduction of exhaust gases, however, is also significantly influenced by the technological equipment in the vehicles.
Indstilling ved andenbehandling af Lange (A4-0044/98)
In this, the on board diagnostic systems (OBD) will play an important role by checking the exhaust emissions and drawing the owner's attention to defects.
I den forbindelse skal man særligt tilstræbe en reel reduktion af det tilladte indhold af svovl og aromater (navnlig benzen) i forhold til det indhold, man ser i dag.
Car manufacturers who were not much in favour at the start have decided to make considerable efforts to respect emission standards.
Paisley (NI). - (EN) Fru formand, det er væsentligt at have strenge mål, når det gælder reduktion af bilers ud stødning.
It cannot be sufficient to buy years of freedom from environmental worries by purchasing a new car with a catalytic converter.
Selvom den moderne bil er 40 gange renere end dens sidestykke i 80'erne, vil luftkvaliteten blive øget væsentligt ved gennemførelsen af de forslag, der er forelagt Parlamentet.
The OBD systems will require greater discipline on the part of the consumer, who must keep his vehicle constantly in tiptop condition.
Forbedrede bilstandarder og renere brændstof er en nødvendighed.
If the OBD discovers a defect in the exhaust system, the fault must be removed.
Sammen med mine to kolleger fra Nordirland tog jeg en repræsentant fra en virksomhed i Nordirland med for at møde nogle embedsmænd i Kommissionen om et nyt pro dukt, som nu reducerer emissionsniveauerne væsentligt med det yderligere udbytte, at det reducerer det generelle brændstofsforbrug.
As a countermove the marketing of this technological progress must be so regulated that no hidden monopolies can be created which harm the consumer.
Det viser den interesse, vi i Nordirland føler, når det gælder om at sikre, at der gøres noget ved dette problem så hurtigt som muligt.
We must pre vent the encoding of diagnostic systems precluding independent workshops from carrying out maintenance and repairs.
Jeg er glad for det initiativ, der er taget af nogle personer i min valg kreds, som arbejder proaktivt på at udvikle et produkt, der opfylder de strenge krav, der stilles i den europæiske lov givning.
In addition, these systems must permit the incor poration of parts which are not made by the car manufacturer but which meet their quality standards.
Caudron (PSE), skriftlig. - (FR) Betænkningen af vores kollega Lange er interessant af mere end en årsag.
This will guarantee that the consumer will have the choice of having his vehicle maintained at a favourable price and to a high standard in the interests of the environment.
Endelig udgør denne produktion af vedvarende råstoffer beregnet til fremstilling af biobrændstoffer en væsentlig mulighed for diversificering, hvilket kan bidrage til at be vare en fornuftig udnyttelse af landbrugsområderne.
We must not wave the red rag on this issue, but should first inform opinion about the consequences of the meas ures we are recommending would have, and especially on the following subject: in people's minds for some time now as well as in the press, even diesel causes pollution which causes asthma or causes cancer.
Udbredelsen af biobrændstoffer vil gøre det muligt at opfylde byboernes be hov, samtidig med at den fremmer udviklingen af et mil jøvenligt landbrug.
This was true of old diesel, but, with these new measures, diesel will be less polluting than leadfree petrol, thus turning the whole situation on its head.
Vaz da Silva (PPE), skriftlig. - (PT) Jeg har ikke stemt imod Hautalas betænkning, fordi jeg ikke er enig i de mål, som man ønsker at nå, men fordi jeg betragter dens for slag som uigennemførlige.
Sainjon (ARE), in writing. - (FR) Atmospheric pollution has become a political issue quite simply because cities and the large European metropolises have experienced or are currently experiencing this type of problem.
Disse overvejelser har nemlig gjort det muligt at belyse de tekniske fremskridt inden for den europæiske bilindustri, og navnlig med hensyn til motorernes ydeevne.
Lastly, and I will end here, the key point which Parliament must deal with is the issue of increasing the proportion of newer cars on our roads.
Denne udvikling, såvel med hensyn til dieselmotorerne som de atmosfæriske motorer, har unægtelig haft en indflydelse på reduktionen af skadelige emissioner.
This is the most effective way of greatly reducing the degree of pollution in Europe.
Vores ønske om at lovgive på dette område er rimeligt.
Estimates indicate that 20 % of the cars on the road cause around 80 % of the pollution.
