Evaluation and Impact Assessment Study
on Motor Vehicles
Introduction
At the end of 2010, a public consultation exercise was launched by the European Commission in order to obtain views of stakeholders and the wider public on the proposed initiative to review the type-approval legislation for motor vehicles and for stakeholders to comment on the possible policy options that had been identified by various stakeholders. Following from this, Risk & Policy Analysts has been contracted by DG Enterprise and Industry (read letter from the Commission) to collect more information from specific stakeholders groups to undertake a two-fold study:
- Module 1: an Ex-post Evaluation of the current legal framework for the type-approval of motor vehicles; and
- Module 2: an Impact Assessment on a possible policy initiative aimed at enhancing the implementation of the internal market legislation relating to motor vehicles (Module 2).
The four questionnaires below are mainly concerned with the ex-post evaluation (Module 1), although some questions relating to Module 2 are asked.
Questionnaire for Economic Operators:
Questionnaire for Technical Services:
Questionnaire for National Authorities:
Questionnaire for Consumer Organisations and Users:

Confidentiality
Please note that responses to the questionnaires will be handled in the strictest confidence and will only be used for the purposes of this study. In preparing our reports for the Commission (which, subsequently, may be published), care will be taken to ensure that specific responses cannot be linked to individual companies or organisations. If you have specific concerns about how your views will be treated, you can contact Tobe Nwaogu and we will be happy to discuss your concerns.
