My comments will relate to the regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on certain fluorinated greenhouse gases and the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council on emissions from air conditioning systems in motor vehicles and amending Council Directive 70/156/EEC.
Mr President, the regulation on F-gases is yet another example of overregulation, and it bears no relation to reality. What is the point of adopting another environmental regulation when statistical analysis shows that F-gases are virtually harmless, and that any negative effect is hard to distinguish from statistical error?
The regulation demonstrates a completely unbalanced approach to environmental and industrial development.
The fact that it is founded on a single legal basis, namely Article 95 of the Treaty establishing the European Community, means that the functioning of the common market could be disrupted, which is an alarming prospect.
Poland and the other Member States that have not imposed restrictions on the use of F-gases are firmly opposed to this decision. They believe that the regulation should be founded on two legal bases, namely Articles 95 and 175 of the Treaty establishing the European Community. This would allow identical requirements to be applied throughout the European Union regarding restrictions and bans on the placing on the single market of certain products containing F-gases, and would mean that the principle of the common market would not be violated.
There can be no question that for the majority of new Member States restrictions on emissions of fluorinated gases would result in economic losses that would be out of all proportion to their environmental benefits."@en1
