Amendment 70 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 7
(7) Pursuant to Directive 1999/62/EC, an external-cost charge mayshould be imposed at a level close to the social marginal cost of the usage of the vehicle in question. That method has proven to be the fairest and most efficient way to take account of negative environmental and health impacts of air pollution and noise generated by heavy duty vehicles, and would ensure a fair contribution from heavy duty vehicles to meeting EU air quality standards17 and any applicable noise limits or targets. The application of such charges should therefore be facilitated. _________________ 17 Directive 2008/50/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 May 2008 on ambient air quality and cleaner air for Europe, OJ L 152, 11.06.2008, p. 1-44
