5 Amendments of Christine REVAULT D'ALLONNES BONNEFOY related to 2016/0170(COD)

Amendment 22 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 2
(2) The Regulatory Fitness Programme (REFIT)17 has shown that not all Member States certify aluminium ships under Directive 2009/45/EC. This creates an uneven situation that undermines the objective of achieving a common, high safety level for passengers sailing domestically in the Union. To avoid the non-uniform application arising from the interpretation of the Directive's scope related to the definition of aluminium as an equivalent material and the applicability of the corresponding fire safety standards, the definition of the equivalent material should be clarified, because the specific properties of aluminium mean that is not a material equivalent to steel. It has been noted that the national rules in place ensure a high level of safety for passengers sailing domestically, so applying this Directive to all aluminium vessels would be disproportionate and out of line with the aims of the REFIT programme, which are to simplify the rules and reduce the administrative burden on stakeholders in the shipping industry. _________________ 17 COM(2015)0508.
