lpv:translated text	"− I voted in favour of Ms Lulling’s report on the taxation of energy products and electricity because I completely agree with its basic principles: aligning provisions on energy taxation with the environmental goals of the Europe 2020 Strategy, and reducing distortions in the internal market between EU Member States. Indeed, the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity needs to be as coherent as possible with the EU’s environmental goals. The political groups cannot reach an agreement on proportionality. I was especially supportive of Amendment 53, which aims to rid the proposal of the principle of proportionality, primarily for pragmatic reasons. We cannot allow further increases in diesel prices at a time when, for fiscal reasons due to austerity measures, the prices of energy products are under constant pressure. Furthermore, diesel is often used for work purposes and it is obvious that road haulage would suffer major negative effects as a result of regulated minimum rate increases. Lastly, the people of Europe would not be able to comprehend such a decision."@en1
