"Directive 97/68/EC set out the maximum exhaust emissions of carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides and particulates from diesel engines of non-road mobile machinery, which has resulted in a series of measures in Union law intended to protect the environment and increase sustainability in the European Union. Taking account of the technical adaptation efforts involved in a regulation of this kind, a flexibility scheme was introduced, seeking to reconcile the goal of meeting the proposed targets with the need to offer companies a period in which to reshape their production processes. Meanwhile, the European Commission has proposed an expansion of the flexibility scheme, alluding, in particular, to the problems being experienced by the industry as a result of the economic crisis. In accordance with the rapporteur’s explanatory statement, I believe that we should not abandon the envisaged model, notwithstanding the possibility of expanding the scope of the flexibility scheme in some special cases. The model should broadly continue along the same lines, following the trend towards reduced carbon emissions. Moreover, this means that companies that have invested in technological adaptation are quite rightly rewarded. I voted in favour for these reasons."@en1
