would help the lubricant industry to take even stronger actions in cases where access to technical information is not provided.
The Committees will continue to engage with the European institutions regarding the evaluation of the Motor Vehicle Block Exemption Regulation (MVBER). The Committees are sending a letter to the Commission describing with examples anti-competitive behaviours the lubricant industry faces in the market.
Taxation Taskforce Update The EU co-legislators are currently negotiating the revised Energy Taxation Directive that the European Commission published last year. This revised Directive is important for the lubricant sector to promote a level playing field in Europe.
Furthermore, related to UEIL’s objective to prevent the inclusion of lubes under the Excise Movement and Control System (EMCS), certain EU Member States are concerned about increased fraud with lubes across
Europe and are once again increasing the pressure to include lubes under EMCS.
UEIL will continue its outreach to EU Member States in the coming weeks to express its concern and will discuss with the European Commission the option of a definition of ‘light lubes’ that might be included under EMCS in the second half of 2022.
The European Commission has also decided to reduce the quota on GP II to 75K tonnes in the first half of 2022 and to 0 in the second half of 2022. UEIL is lobbying for a higher quota as the demand is higher than the supply in Europe on GP II and for lubricant blenders it is very difficult to change from one producer to another. If the current contingent in the first half of 2022 is quickly fully used, certain EU Member States will ask if the current quota can be extended.
