The Committee on Legal Affairs adopted the report drafted by Mr Francesco Enrico SPERONI (UEN, IT) approving, under the first reading of the codecision procedure, the proposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the Council relating to the driver-perceived noise level of wheeled agricultural or forestry tractors (codified version).
Although the proposal was not the subject to any ‘formal’ amendments by the committee, it incorporates the recommendations of the Consultative Working Party of the legal services of Parliament, the Council and the Commission who made a certain number of technical remarks regarding the text of the codified proposal.
The only modification made to the draft codification relates to Annex I, point 2.7, and Annex II, point 2.7 of the proposal: in each case, in the French text, of the word "reflétante" is replaced by the word "réfléchissante".
Apart from that one point, the proposal was indeed a straightforward codification involving no substantive changes to the acts concerned.
