lpv:translated text	". I suppose that it will not hurt for us to agree with a proposal for a Commission directive, as long as it is just this once. It is not because we are looking favourably upon the statement from the Commission – you know our views on European integration in general and on this institution in particular. We must admit, however, that for once the Commission has made an effort in terms of prior consultation with users and manufacturers, cost-benefit studies and realistic economic and technical alternatives. This approach is only rarely seen in cases that we deal with here. On the other hand, we do not agree with Mr Lange, as we do not really know if he is doing this to drum up popularity or if he was hired by our competitors to discredit European manufacturers. If he carries on in this way, he is going to be demanding that motorcyclists stop breathing so as to stop CO2 emissions. So we say yes to cleaner motorcycles, yes to new testing procedures that are more in line with actual usage of vehicles and yes to a timetable that manufacturers deem realistic. However, we say no to unrealistic emissions limits, no to additional provisions that are not imposed on other means of transport and, in short, we say no to Mr Lange’s amendments."@en1
