NGO letter to EU institutions: Take immediate action to respond to the dieselgate scandal

NGO letter to EU institutions: Take immediate action to respond to the dieselgate scandal

Advocacy letter    |    9 November 2015

The dieselgate scandal is symptomatic of a ‘better regulation’ agenda in favour of cutting compliance costs and replacing the role of the public regulator with corporate co- and self-regulation. More than 35 civil society organisations have signed this letter calling for immediate and transparent investigations; EU oversight in the process of type approval for motor vehicles; strengthened enforcement of environmental legislation at EU and Member State level; the suspension of fraudulent companies from the EU lobby register until it has been demonstrated that they comply with EU law.
