WSC Response to call for feedback on EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) - rules for the administration of shipping companies by administrating authorities under the EU ETS
WSC offers the following observations in support of the implementing act as drafted that provides rules for the application of Directive 2003/87/EC regarding the administration of shipping companies by administering authorities.
The proposed implementing regulation establishes reporting requirements for the responsible party that provide clarity for EU ETS compliance and enforcement responsibility, that allow flexibility for industry in assigning the responsibility for EU ETS accounting requirements, and that ensure consistency for Member States with potentially reduced administrative burden.
