Proposal for a decision
Recital 2
(2) For the purposes of legal certainty and market predictability, it should be clarified that, in order to ensure an orderly functioning of the market, the Commission is able in exceptional circumstances to adapt the auction timetable pursuant to Article 10(4) of Directive 2003/87/EC provided that such intervention can be justified by an impact assessment showing that the Union is at risk of not reaching a reduction of emissions in 2020 in the Community scheme of 21 % below reported 2005 levels and that the intervention does not have a significant carbon leakage impact. The Commission should be able to make no more than one such adaptation and only during the eight-year period beginning on 1 January 2013.

Proposal for a decision
Recital 3 a (new)
(3a) In addition to this Decision, the Commission will include in the next revision of the EU ETS proposals for implementing a more dynamic approach for the allocation of allowances. That approach should be based on actual production factors rather than on historic reference periods which have proven to make the EU ETS unable to properly adapt to economic upturns and downturns. While ensuring the required absolute reductions over the entire period, the allocation system should allow for ex- post adjustments in order to avoid the need for further interventions by the Commission, such as to mitigate over- allocation as well as unjustified shortages of allowances.
