| Abstract | 1. While the Commission's proposal aimed at providing a structured framework for encouraging improvements of the environmental performance of engineering products traded in the internal market, we feel that this report is tending towards establishing a framework which, to say the least is unusual in a liberal economic system. If we welcome the proposals of the European Parliament to provide more structure and consistency in areas such as market surveillance, we strongly object to the proposed transfer of many of the crucial decisions on the design of products from manufacturers who make the products to nebulous bureaucratic structures. It must be clear that a situation where core competences of a manufacturer in the area of the design of a product, are shifted to external planning structures that would provide technical options and finally impose design solutions, is unworkable and unacceptable. |
