Last month, Members of European Parliament unanimously approved an interim report, summarising the committee’s activities so far and outlining its work programme for the second half of its one-year mandate. The report is to be debated by Parliament as a whole on 13 September in Strasbourg. The MEPs also conducted hearings where constructors stated that the EU needs a common definition of “normal car use” and that diesel engine NOx emissions are the price paid to hit lower CO2 targets. The hearings took place at the Committee of Inquiry into Emission Measurements in the Automotive Sector (EMIS), whose work will be resumed after the summer break.
