Proposal for a regulation
Article 7 – paragraph 1

~~Within three years f~~Following the date referred to in Annex III, third column, phase 1, to this Regulation, the Commission shall c~~arry out a detailed study to ascer~~omplete a review of the noise limits in Annex III. The review shall include an impact assessment which includes an overall assessment of the impact on the car industry and its dependent industries takin ~~whether the noise limits prove to be appropriate. On the basis of the conclusions of the study~~g into account in particular the influence of other regulations - such as those in the field of CO2 emissions reductions and safety - on the sound level of motor vehicles. On the basis of such a review and its impact assessment, the Commission ~~may, where~~shall, if appropriate, ~~present proposals for amendment to this Regulat~~make a proposal to amend this Regulation in a way that is as neutral as possible from the point of view of competition. The limit values referred to in Annex III, column 4 Phase 2, shall enter into force six years after confirmation of the impact assessment and completion of the review process of the Commission.
