6 Amendments of Dame Glenis WILLMOTT related to 2005/0283(COD)

Amendment 13 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 10 a (new)
(10a) This Directive aims to drive the market for clean and energy efficient vehicles, and especially - since this would have a substantial environmental impact - to influence the market for standardised vehicles produced in larger quantities like passenger cars, buses, coaches, trucks and the like. It is therefore not intended to influence the procurement decisions of vehicles providing vital emergency services or other highly specialised vehicles.
