Recital 33
(33) [As regards the approach to allocation, aviation should be treated as other industries which receive transitional free allocation rather than as electricity generatorsin a manner which reflects its ability to find replacement fuels in the medium to long term. This means that 80% of allowances should be allocated for free in 2013, and thereafter the free allocation to aviation should decrease each year by equal amounts resulting in no free allocation in 2020. The Community and its Member States should continue to seek to reach an agreement on global measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation and review the situation of this sector as part of the next review of the Community scheme. The Commission will adopt all necessary measures to mitigate any negative economic or social effects on the outermost regions of the European Union and islands, including small island Member States to which the implementation of this Directive can be attributed. ]
