".
I broadly agree with the European Commission proposal.
If there is a chapter in which Portugal has made real progress on European issues, it is the chapter concerning streamlining toll charges, by introducing the ‘Via Verde’ [Green Route], which has proven to be the most effective, practical and suitable system in Europe.
Streamlining toll charges throughout the European Union will certainly make life easier for European citizens, in particular for transport professionals and also represents a substantial step towards deepening the internal market.
I fully agreed with the ideas put forward by the rapporteur on the need – without prejudice to the concept of interoperability, which is recommended and supported – not to overlook compliance with the principle of subsidiarity with regard to each country’s technical choices, which would have inevitable financial consequences.
I also agree with the recommendations for prudence in the joint adoption of new technologies – these must really exist and be of proven value to users and for the need for their introduction not to distort market rules and their operation."@en1
