Recital 9
Recital 9
(9) Extending the scope of the Directive by including practices such as lease, rental and hire-purchase of vehicles, as well as contracts for public road transport services, special purpose road transport passenger services, non- scheduled passenger transport and hire of buses and coaches with drivers as well as specific postal and courier services and waste refusal services ensures that all relevant procurement practices are covered. In addition, operators which generate state aid benefits in providing their transport services are considered to be equally relevant in giving a clear market signal – unless, however, one of the exceptions set out in this Directive applies.

Recital 9 a (new)
Recital 9 a (new)
(9a) In the medium term, fair conditions for competition need to be created for the public sector just as for the sector as a whole, in order to prevent any possible discrimination. From an employment-law and environmental perspective, these sectors must not be treated differently when providing transport services. The long-distance coach market is experiencing increased growth, which will in turn lead to an increased environmental impact. These vehicles are not covered by the Directive; they should be included in the medium term, as soon as the public sector’s procurement arrangements have created and reinforced markets for innovative goods and services with corresponding market signals.
Amendment 70 #

Recital 9 b (new)
Recital 9 b (new)
(9b) Since the public sector will reinforce the market in the short term when it implements the Directive and obtains cleaner vehicles, framework conditions have been drawn up for the whole sector. The sector in its entirety should be integrated into the scope of the Directive no later than five years after its entry into force.
Amendment 76 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 10
Recital 10
(10) There is widespread support from key stakeholders for a definition of clean vehicles taking account of reduction requirements for greenhouse gases and air pollutant emissions from light- and heavy- duty vehicles. To ensure that there are adequate incentives to supporting market- uptake of low- and zero-emission vehicles in the Union, provisions for their public procurement under this amendment should be aligned with provisions of Union legislation on CO2 emission performance of cars and vans for the post-202026 period; this approach must also be applied to heavy goods vehicles. Action carried out under the amended Directive will contribute to compliance with the requirements of these standards. A more ambitious approach for public procurement can provide an important additional market stimulus. _________________ 26The supply of heavy goods vehicles in particular must be stimulated, in part because of the poorly-developed market maturity of ‘clean’ heavy goods vehicles. COM(2017) 676 final.
