In this document we have some recommendations for amendments on the proposal for a circular vehicle regulation as was made by the EC on June 13th 2023. To ensure a transparent, open and competitive market and an environmentally safe handling of end-of-life vehicles in the EU, we are mainly concerned with the following issues:
– ELVs need to arrive in a complete state at the ATF;
– ELVs should only be dismantled at ATFs;
– Only ATFs issue CODs ;
– Only ATFs sell parts for reuse , also on online platforms;
– ATFs need protection against illegals and unfair competition; – Incentives to direct ELVs to ATFs are necessary
– Contracts with PROs or individual OEMs should not disturb the market; – Contracts with PROs or individual OEMs need to be open for any ATF.
On the next pdf some suggestions for amendments are formulated, without pretending to be fully complete:
