".
We voted in favour of this second reading despite some differences of opinion on certain aspects of the new directive establishing design requirements for energy-using products.
We believe that it is crucial to invest in making the most efficient use of energy and in informing consumers, whilst ensuring that the new legislation does not overburden small businesses with costs.
The directive covers everyday objects, such as hairdryers, washing machines and computers, which are responsible for around 40% of carbon dioxide emissions into the atmosphere. Cars are not covered here, since there is already special legislation covering them.
The report contains important proposals to safeguard micro, small and medium-sized enterprises and the consumer. We shall see the Council’s position."@en1
