Joint Oireachtas Committee on Transport, Tourism and Sport
Scrutiny of EU Legislative Proposals
Ms Patricia Waller:
I will comment on COM (2021) 556. Effectively, this file introduces regulations that will encourage manufacturers to produce cleaner vehicles and sets stricter CO2 emission reduction standards for manufacturers, which is one of the most effective ways to reduce transport emissions. Ireland will be happy to pursue opportunities to accelerate the ambition of this file. It aligns with our national targets for the electrification of cars.
