". – Mr President, the proposed compromise is well balanced. It recognises the benefits to industry of regulatory alignment with parallel developments in the USA, and at the same time it is compatible with industry's capacity to respond. It also provides for a marked improvement in the environmental performance of engines in non-road applications.
Importantly, it also includes a provision for a review in 2007 whereby the Commission will assess whether there is any need for adjustment to the Stage IIIb and Stage IV emissions standards and the timetable for their application or exemption.
In addition, the proposed compromise addresses the issue of labelling and a number of technical issues such as 'cycle beating' and test cycle improvements. It also recognises that some details cannot be finalised at this point and are best left to comitology or the review.
The Commission is very pleased with the outcome and again I would like to thank the rapporteur, Mr Lange, for his efforts to reach an agreement at first reading. The Commission can accept the proposed compromise amendments in full."@en1
