"Madam President, as a resolution on a Single European Transport Area, this report calls for the Commission to put forward proposals on social and working conditions to facilitate the creation of a fully-integrated European transport market for workers. This is something that I cannot support. The report is far too ambitious, and unrealistic targets have been set for reducing the number of road deaths and reducing CO emissions from road transport and shipping. It suggests that the Commission should also develop safe infrastructure for pedestrians and cyclists in towns and work towards doubling the number of users of public transport. The resolution clearly does not respect the principle of subsidiarity, and I feel it would generate more unnecessary bureaucratic legislation for Member States. Even Wales has devolved transport systems. I cannot see how this could work in the UK, let alone across Europe."@en1
