"The proposal includes an amendment to the directive on action to be taken against the emission of gaseous and particulate pollutants by engines intended to power agricultural or forestry tractors. Its aim is to ensure the free movement of this farm machinery, while, at the same time, reducing the permitted level of engine exhaust gas emissions in order to protect the health and quality of life of people and the environment. The directive lays down progressively lower limit values for the successive stages corresponding to the various dates set for adaptation to maximum emission levels for exhaust gases and particulates. Technical studies carried out in 2007, 2009 and 2010, and confirmed by an impact assessment carried out by the Commission, showed that it was not technically feasible for tractors in categories T2, C2 and T4.1 to meet the requirements of stages IIIB and IV within the set deadlines.
In order to prevent the establishment, through Union legislation, of technical requirements that cannot be met, and to prevent a situation where tractors in the previously mentioned category could not be type approved and placed on the market or put into service, it is necessary to establish a transitional period of three years, within which these tractors can still be type approved and placed on the market or put into service. In my opinion, Directive 2000/25/EC should therefore be amended accordingly."@en1
