Question for written answer E-000381/2025
to the Commission
Rule 144
Liesbet Sommen (PPE)
Periodic roadworthiness testing of vehicles and roadside inspections are crucial not only for road safety and consumer protection, but also for the environment. Vehicles are becoming increasingly complex due to intelligent transport systems and the emergence of connected and automated vehicles. It is therefore essential to keep pace with these developments and work towards a more harmonised EU framework.
The revision of this package is an important step towards achieving, for example, unified emissions tests (PM and NOx tests), which contribute to a healthier environment. In addition, on-board diagnostics can be improved to detect advanced AdBlue fraud, facilitate access to registration data by delivering it in digital format, ensure cyber security of vehicle data and combat mileage fraud.
The indicative schedule was for the first quarter of 2023. However, to date, this package has not been published. In view of the above:
- 1.When can this package be expected?
- 2.To what extent does the new Commission see this proposal as a priority?
- 3.To what extent will this package converge with the proposal on access to in-vehicle data, which is also in the pipeline?
