Traduction de «Transport quota » (Anglais → Français) :

While the mainstay of this report is the EU-Turkey customs union, other issues are covered – such as road transport, quotas and visas – which I prefer not to dwell upon as Trade Commissioner.

44. Regrets that the current trading system produces a global division of labour and production which is based on a very high input of transport, which does not bear its own environmental costs; wants the climate cost of international transport to be internalized in its price, whether this be done through taxation or quota trading schemes that charge fees; welcomes the fact that aviation is soon to be included in the EU ETS and awaits a similar initiative from the Commission for maritime transport by 2011, entering into effect in 20 ...[+++]13, if it proves impossible to set up a global mechanism by then; regrets that fuel consumed in overseas transportation of goods is not subject taxes; advocates that taxes be imposed on that fuel and on those products, in particular on airfreight products; expects also that the Commission take the initiative to query aid granted to the more polluting modes of transport, such as exemption from kerosene tax;

(d) to address, in its energy and climate strategy, the transport sector, which is 96% dependent on oil and responsible for 30% of EU emissions; to set an absolute greenhouse gas emission target of 30% for the EU's transport sector by 2020 in line with the EU's Kyoto targets; to fix an annual 1% shift in the modal split from modes with high climate gas levels, i.e. cars, haulage vehicles and aircraft, to more climate-friendly means of transport such as rail and sustainable waterborne modes; to implement measures to avoid transport and increase the energy efficiency of transport modes, in particular by imposing a binding 120 g CO2/km l ...[+++]imit for the EU fleet average on new cars by 2012, which is exactly what the car industry promised in 1998 – and failed to achieve – by its voluntary self-commitment and which could be accompanied by trading of emission quotas between manufacturers; to achieve a further increase in efficiency of at least 10 g CO2/km every two years thereafter, to internalise social and environmental costs into fuel prices, to eliminate the unfair subsidies and tax exemptions in particular for the aviation sector and to impose a kerosene tax so that a level playing field is achieved between the transport modes;

—for exemption from excise duty on gases used as fuel for public transport subject to an annual quota.
