Recital 15
(15) Research suggests that physical harm arises from healthcare in around 10% of cases. Ensuring clear common obligations to deal with circumstances of responding to harm arising from healthcare is therefore essential to avoid lack of confidence in those mechanisms acting as an obstacle to taking up cross-border healthcare. Coverage for harm and compensation by the systems of the country of treatment should be without prejudice to the possibility for Member States to extend the coverage of their domestic systems to patients from their country seeking healthcare abroad, where this is more appropriate to the patient, in particular in the case of patients for whom use of healthcare in another Member State is necessary.

The Framework should comprise a quality assurance and improvement cycle of planning, implementation, evaluation/assessment and review of VET, supported by common quality criteria, indicative descriptors and indicators. The monitoring processes, including a combination of internal and external evaluation mechanisms, have to be defined by Member States as appropriate in order to identify the strength of systems, processes and procedures and areas for improvement. The Framework should include the use of measuring tools to provide evidence of effectiveness. It is important in this context that national quality frameworks should, at the minimum, comply with the standards and directives for quality assurance in intermediate vocational education and training laid down in the European Reference Framework.

(20) The Commission should therefore review the situation by June 2011 at the latest, consult with all relevant social partners, and, in the light of the outcome of the international negotiations, submit a report accompanied by any appropriate proposals. In this context, the Commission should identify which energy intensive industry sectors or sub-sectors are likely to be subject to carbon leakage not later than 30 June 2010. It should base its analysis on the assessment of the cost structure of installations inside and outside the EU and the inability to pass on the cost of required allowances in product prices without significant loss of market share to installations outside the Community not taking comparable action to reduce emissions. Energy-intensive industries which are determined to be exposed to a significant risk of carbon leakage could receive a higher amount of free allocation or an effective carbon equalisation system could be introduced with a view to putting installations from the Community which are at significant risk of carbon leakage and those from third countries on a comparable footing. Such a system could apply requirements to importers that would be no less favourable than those applicable to installations within the EU, for example by requiring the surrender of allowances. Any action taken would need to be in conformity with the principles of the UNFCCC, in particular the principle of common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities, taking into account the particular situation of Least Developed Countries. It would also need to be in conformity with the international obligations of the Community including the WTO agreement.

(33) [As regards the approach viation is an energy-intensive industry sector allocation, aviation should be treated as other industries which receive transitional free allocation rather than as electricity generators. 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.] s defined in Council Directive 2003/96/EC of 27 October 2003 restructuring the Community framework for the taxation of energy products and electricity1. In the absence of a viable alternative fuel, aviation is fully kerosene dependent for its energy provision and has very high abatement costs. Also, the ability for aircraft operators to pass through costs of allowances to their customers is limited. The Community and its Member States should continue to seek to reach an agreement on global measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation. As long as there is no global agreement on global measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from aviation, there are serious risks of traffic deviation and carbon leakage, particularly if a high level of auctioning is applied to the sector within the EU ETS. Accordingly, the level of auctioning of allowances for aviation should reflect the risk of carbon leakage and the impact of ETS on competitiveness for EU aviation.] _______________ 1 OJ L 283, 31.10.2003, p. 51.
