(7) In order to achieve EU air quality objectives and to ensure a continuous effort to reduce vehicle emissions, the power to adopt delegated acts in accordance with Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFUE) should be delegated to the Commission in respect of the detailed rules on the application of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 to vehicles of categories M1, M2, N1 and N2 with a reference mass exceeding 2 610 kg but with a maximum vehicletechnically permissible laden mass not exceeding 5 07 500 kg, the specific procedures, tests and requirements for type approval, the requirements for the implementation of the prohibition on the use of defeat devices that reduce the effectiveness of emission control systems, the measures necessary for the implementation of the obligation of a manufacturer to provide unrestricted and standardised access to vehicle repair and maintenance information, the replacement of the information on the mass of CO2 emissions in the certificate of conformity with information on total mass of CO2 emissions equivalents, the increase or removal of the limit value of total hydrocarbons emissions for positive ignition vehicles, the amendment of Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 for the purposes of recalibrating the particulate mass based limit values and introducing particle number based limit values that would correlate broadly with the petrol and diesel mass limit values, the adoption of a revised measurement procedure for particulates and a particle number limit value, a limit value for emissions of NO2 and limits for tailpipe emissions at cold temperatures for vehicles approved as complying with the Euro 6 emission limit and the adoption of a revised measurement procedure for particulates. The Commission, when preparing and drawing up delegated acts, should ensure a simultaneous, timely and appropriate transmission of relevant documents to the European Parliament and to the Council.

(7a) If the objective of reducing the impact on the environment of pollutant emissions from road transport is to be achieved, fuels with a high carbon content should gradually be replaced by alternatives with a lower carbon content, such as methane, although in the longer term making road transport genuinely environmentally sustainable calls for the development of new technologies which have a low impact on the environment, such as vehicles powered by electricity, hydrogen or compressed air.

(8) The Treaty of Lisbon introduced the possibility for the legislator to delegate power to the Commission to adopt non- legislative acts of general application to supplement or amend certain non-essential elements of a legislative act. The measures which can be covered by delegations of powers, as referred to in Article 290(1) TFEU, correspond in principle to those covered by the regulatory procedure with scrutiny establishlist of pollutants and the corresponding limits for atmospheric emissions constitute essential elements of Regulations (EC) No 715/2007 and (EC) No 595/2009, so that they can only be amended using the ordinary legislative procedure as defined byin Article 5a of Council Decision 1999/468/EC6. It is therefore necessary to adapt to Article 290 TFEU the provisions in Regulation (EC) No 715/2007 which provide for the use of the regulatory procedure with scrutiny. __________________ 6 Council Decision 1999/468/EC of 28 June 1999 laying down the procedures for the exercise of implementing powers conferred on the Commission (OJ L 184, 17.7.1999, p. 23)s 289(1) and 294 TFEU and there can be no delegation of powers to the Commission within the meaning of Article 290 TFEU. The non-essential elements of the regulations may be amended by the Commission on the basis of a delegation of powers within the meaning of that Article 290.
