".
I supported this report on revising the rules governing energy taxation in the European Union, to which the European Parliament contributes under a consultation procedure. The aim of this review is to align the taxation framework for energy products with goals pursued at European level in the fields of energy efficiency and combating global warming. I voted in particular against the maintenance of the principle of proportionality proposed by the Commission as it would lead to a major increase in the tax rate for diesel (and therefore in its price) by aligning it on the tax rate for petrol, which would have negative consequences both for European consumers and the European automotive industry."@en1
