"Mr President, in relation to the carrying of heavy goods vehicles, this is quite serious as far as Ireland is concerned. We are on the periphery of Europe, with two sea bridges to mainland Europe where all of these extra charges for road use and pollution are going to apply. I understand from the exporters’ association in Ireland that this would add EUR 150 per trip, or EUR 300 per round trip, for haulage from Ireland, which depends heavily on this type of haulage and also very heavily on exports. This will ensure that we will be less competitive.
I believe that the Commission and the Council must look at this and must take into consideration the peripheral regions. It is not a major issue for the mainland European Member States but is certainly a major issue for Ireland and for other peripheral countries."@en1
