However, in order to limit distortions of competition and to ensure the smooth functioning of the Internal Market, the proposal calls on Member States to set up excise reduction mechanisms which take account of changes in raw material prices so that the lower tax rates do not over-compensate for the extra cost of manufacturing biofuels.
Teneinde de concurrentievervalsing te beperken en de soepele werking van de interne markt te verzekeren, worden de lidstaten verzocht accijnsverlagingsmechanismen in te voeren die inspelen op de veranderende grondstoffenprijzen, ter voorkoming van overcompensatie van de extra productiekosten van biobrandstoffen door de lagere belastingtarieven.
