8. Urges the Commission to adopt and implement the new Real Driving Emissions test cycle without any further delay, and to bring it into force for regulatory purposes; welcomes the report on the reduction of pollutant emissions from road vehicles (the Deß report, A8‑0270/2015) adopted by Parliament’s Committee on the Environment, Public Health and Food Safety on 23 September 2015, and in particular the requirement that the Commission ‘introduce a real driving emissions test for all vehicles type-approved or registered from 2015 to en ...[+++]sure the effectiveness of emission control systems and enable the vehicle to comply with this Regulation and its implementing measures, with a conformity factor reflecting only the possible tolerances of the emissions measurement procedure in place by 2017’; urges the Member States and the Commission to swiftly come to an agreement on a framework for the test cycle on that basis;

(2) Where by any Act of Parliament or regulation made under an Act of Parliament provision is made for the issue by a department, commission, board or other branch in the federal public administration of a licence requisite to the doing or having of any act or thing or for the issue of any other document, an affidavit of an officer of the department, commission, board or other branch in the federal public administration, sworn before any commissioner or other person authorized to take affidavits, setting out that he or she has charge ...[+++]of the appropriate records and that after careful examination and search of those records he or she has been unable to find in any given case that any such licence or other document has been issued, shall be admitted in evidence as proof, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, that in that case no licence or other document has been issued.

6. RECALLS that a measure applied to aviation and maritime transport should have the primary goal to allow for the sector to contribute through mitigation to the 2 degree objective established by the UNFCCC; REITERATES that the carbon pricing of global aviation and maritime transportation would generate the necessary price signal to efficiently achieve more emission reductions from these sectors and could generate large financial flows, as highlighted in the AGF and the G20 reports; In this context, TAKES NOTE of the Commission's work on carbon pricing of international aviation and maritime transport and the options under consideration ...[+++] in the context of ICAO and IMO for global measures to address emissions in the aviation and maritime sectors; CONCLUDES that a majority of those have the potential to generate a carbon price which could potentially also generate significant revenues; NOTES that finance available, including from auctions of aviation allowances in the EU ETS, could help to support climate action in developing countries while STRESSING that it will be up to each Member State to determine the use of public revenues in accordance with national budgetary rules and in consistency with a sound and sustainable public finances policy framework of the EU, without prejudging the ongoing negotiations at the IMO; WELCOMES an acceleration of work by ICAO to further develop options for global market-based measures to address aviation emissions; ENCOURAGES the EU and its Member States to further engage effectively in negotiations in ICAO and IMO to support carbon pricing schemes which primarily incentivise mitigation and also have the potential to generate revenue; and URGES all Parties to IMO and ICAO to further increase their efforts to make progress on market based mechanisms to address emissions from global aviation and maritime transportation.
