Fiscal marking of gas oils

The committee adopted the report by Mr GASOLIBA I BOHM (LDR, E). With Community regulations making provision for variable rates on diesel, depending on its use, the potential for fraud exists. The rapporteur therefore recommended that Parliament accept the Commission proposals requiring Member States to add a marker to diesel not taxed at the normal rate. The only amendment concerned comitology. The committee kept to the general approach adopted by Parliament on questions relating to the working of the internal market and proposed that the regulatory committee provided for in the Commission proposal be replaced by an advisory committee.�
