"I have expressed my clear opposition to the report by Ms Ţicău on the proposal amending the current Regulation (EEC) No 3821/85 on recording equipment in road transport (tachographs) and amending Regulation (EC) No 561/2006 of the European Parliament and the Council. Firstly, I would argue that the nature of the tachograph departs from/does not relate to/does not fall within the definition of what a ‘work period’ is: on this point, I note that my proposal to use the term ‘control’ instead of ‘work’ was not taken into consideration/evaluated by my fellow Members. This may have a negative effect on the autonomy of every firm in relation to managing the working hours of its employees. Secondly, the practice of retrofitting will give rise to huge expenditure for firms, of dubious value (even the Commission has said as much). Retrofitting is the requirement in the rapporteur’s proposal for all vehicles to install, by 2020, the new ‘smart tachograph’ in the name of greater safety, without any preliminary study which confirms the usefulness of this. According to road transport bodies, it has been approved to benefit the lobbies that produce these devices."@en1
