On 10th July 2008 the Government published a series of papers on the Department for Transport web site, explaining the European Commission’s proposed EU Regulation on new car CO2 emissions that is currently being debated in Europe, and setting out UK Government views on the regulation. This publication launches a period of consultation on the regulation and on the UK Government’s views on how the regulation should be amended.The proposed Regulation would require manufacturers of cars sold in the EU to meet targets for carbon dioxide emissions for their vehicles on the basis of sales-weighted averages.
