Proposal for a regulation
Article 7 – paragraph 9 a (new)
9a. For each manufacturer, the Commission shall monitor deviations over time between the values determined in accordance with the test procedure set out in Annex XXI to Regulation (EU) 2017/11511a and the declared values entered into the certificates of conformity. Where the Commission suspects strategic reductions in the level of deviation over time for the purpose of meeting the specific emission targets referred to in Article 4 it shall undertake further investigations in consultation with the manufacturer and the relevant type approval authorities. The Commission may take evidence of strategic behaviour into account when calculating the average specific emissions of a manufacturer. The Commission shall adopt detailed rules on the procedures for determining such strategic reductions and for taking them into account in the calculation of the average specific emissions. Those procedures shall be adopted by way of implementing acts in accordance with the examination procedure referred to in Article 15(2). __________________ 1aCommission Regulation (EU) 2017/1151 of 1 June 2017 supplementing Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 of the European Parliament and of the Council on type-approval of motor vehicles with respect to emissions from light passenger and commercial vehicles (Euro 5 and Euro 6) and on access to vehicle repair and maintenance information, amending Directive 2007/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008 and Commission Regulation (EU) No 1230/2012 and repealing Commission Regulation (EC) No 692/2008
