Proposal for a decision Recital 2 (2) In order to facilitate this progress and provide momentum, it is desirable to defer enforcement of requirements relating to flights to and from aerodromes outside of the Union and areas with close economic connections to the Union and a shared commitment to tackle climate change arising prior to the 2013 ICAO Assembly. Action should therefore not be taken against aircraft operators in respect of requirements resulting from Directive 2003/87/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 October 2003 establishing a scheme for greenhouse gas emission allowance trading within the Community arising before 1
Amendment 16 #
Proposal for a decision Recital 3 (3) In order to avoid distortions of competition, this derogation should only apply in respect of aircraft operators that have either not received or have returned all free allocations which have been allocated in respect of such activities in 2012 and 2013. For the same reason, these allowances should not be taken into account for the purposes of calculating entitlements to use international credits within the framework of Directive 2003/87/EC.

Amendment 57 #
Motion for a resolution Paragraph 4 a (new) 4 a.
