Paragraph 7
Paragraph 7
7. Points out that the correct internalisation of external costs for every transport mode should be the basis for a sustainable transport systemshould be the basis for every sustainable transport system; selection of the method and charges imposed to tackle the external costs (principally traffic jams, air pollution, noise) should, however, be governed by the subsidiarity principle in urban areas, so that it must be made clear that imposing environmental taxes on TEN motorways in urban areas falls within the subsidiarity principle for all vehicles (cars and lorries);

Paragraph 8
Paragraph 8
8. Calls on the European Commission to encourage local authorities toCommission to introduce a uniform system of plates based on emission standards and a certification scheme for upgrade systems for car, lorry and off-road vehicle particulate filters to enable local and Member State authorities more easily to enforce measures and provide incentives for business and private users to scomply witch to low-he EU emission means of transport, and/or to renew existing fleets, or to upgrade them with available environmentally friendly technologielimits for fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) and nitrogen oxides (NOx); this will make it possible to ensure that low-emission vehicles and exhaust technologies are used in urban areas;
