"Mr President, on the directive on mobile air-conditioning, I think we have a sensible compromise in Parliament. My only reservation concerns the amendment from Mr Liese and others about low-volume cars. It seems to me that low-volume cars are often high-spec cars with all kinds of features and I wonder what the Commission thinks about the amendment to somehow exempt them from the requirement of having sound technology for mobile air-conditioning.
On the regulation, I think you have heard that the consensus view in Parliament is going to be in favour of Mrs Doyle’s approach, and I am very loathe to use EU legislation to reduce environment standards in different Member States. We have heard from colleagues from different countries who have said they feared this would happen. We need the Council, the Commission and Parliament to bang their heads together to get a resolution on this issue.
By the same token, I am also loathe to agree, when we come to vote, on a series of prohibitions on the use of F gases, which have not been tested or assessed for their health and safety, nor for their economic or environmental impact. Although many of the letters from lobbyists on both sides of the argument may well be valid, before we ban things, we ought to have proper assessments. Therefore, Commissioner, I agree with what you said when you spoke about the prohibitions and the need for them to be examined and to come forward in the review.
I thank Mrs Doyle for her work."@en1
