"I welcome the report by Mr Jørgensen, which adopts the aim of promoting clean, cheap and energy-efficient vehicles on European roads. I firmly believe that through the introduction of common rules at European level we will achieve a more positive impact on the environment. Local authorities play a key role in determining the criteria for public procurement in the area of road transport. I therefore support the proposal, under which public procurement must take account not only of procurement costs but also of consumption costs, CO
emissions and information on atmospheric pollution over the whole life of a vehicle. I firmly believe that a clear set of environmental criteria can play a significant role in supporting the market for clean vehicles.
I also agree with the view that information on the procurement of vehicles for urban mass transport must be transparent and publicly accessible. Intensive and open dialogue between local authorities, environmental protection groups and citizens will surely contribute towards reinforcing the importance of environmental factors in the purchase of new vehicles."@en1
