"Mr President, today’s vote represents a marked step forward in bringing in the ‘polluter pays’ principle, including in the road haulage sector, which makes a significant contribution to atmospheric and noise pollution. Despite the criticisms of industry organisations, I think that the Council’s position is the best compromise available right now, even though I hope that improvements can be made in the future.
I voted in favour. I must point out, however, that we need to identify better ways to use the revenues, making it mandatory for the Member States to invest these resources to improve the trans-European transport network (TEN-T) and infrastructure for reducing pollution. This is the only way that, in future, we will be able to say that today’s decision has had positive results."@en1
