Recital 6

(6) The effort of each Member State should be determined in relation to the level of its 2005 greenhouse gas emissions, which is the latest year for which verified greenhouse gas emissions data is available. The share of Member States that did not participate in the 2005 Community scheme should be calculated using their verified Community scheme emissions under the 2007 Community scheme.

(7) Member State reduction efforts should be based on the principle of solidarity between Member States and the need for sustainable economic growth across the Community, taking into account the relative per capita GDP of Member States. Member States that currently have a relatively low per capita GDP and thus high GDP growth expectations should be allowed to increase their greenhouse emissions compared to 2005, but should limit this greenhouse emissions growth to contribute to the overall reduction commitment of the Community. Member States that currently have a relatively high per capita GDP should reduce their greenhouse emissions compared to 2005. The share of Member States that did not participate in the 2005 Community scheme should be calculated using their verified Community scheme emissions under the 2007 Community scheme.

Article 6

~~1. Paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 shall apply upon the conclusion by the Community~~Within six months following the conclusion of an international agreement on climate change leading to mandatory reductions exceeding those pursuant to Article 3. 2. From the year following the conclusion of the agreement referred to in paragraph 1, the Community's greenhouse gas emissions from sources not covered under Directive 2003/87/EC in 2020 pursuant to Article 3(1) shall be further reduced by a quantity equal to the overall additional reduction of greenhouse gas emissions by the Community from all sources to which the international agreement commits the Community, multiplied by the share of the Community's total greenhouse gas emission reductions for the year 2020 to which the Member States are contributing through greenhouse gas emission reductions from sources not covered under Directive 2003/87/EC pursuant to Article 3. 3. Each Member State shall contribute to the Community's additional reduction effort in proportion to its share of the Community's total emissions from sources not covered under Directive 2003/87/EC for the year 2020 pursuant to Article 3. The Commission shall amend the Annex to adjust the emission limits in accordance with the first subparagraph. That measure, designed to amend non- essential elements of this Decision shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 9(2); 4. Member States may increase the use of greenhouse gas emission reduction credits referred to in Article 4(4) from third countries which have ratified the agreement referred to in paragraph 1 and in accordance with paragraph 5 by up to half of the additional reduction taking place in accordance with paragraph 2. Each Member State may transfer the unused part of that quantity to another Member State. 5. The Commission shall adopt measures to provide for the use by Member States of additional types of project credits or the use by Member States of other mechanisms created under the international agreement, as appropriate. Those measures, designed to amend non- essential elements of this Decision by supplementing it, shall be adopted in accordance with the regulatory procedure with scrutiny referred to in Article 9(2), the Commission shall submit a legislative proposal to be adopted in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty on the contribution by each Member State to the Community’s additional reduction effort.
