Since the objective of this Regulation, namely the monitoring and reporting of CO2 emissions and fuel consumption from new heavy-duty vehicles in the Union, cannot be sufficiently achieved by the Member States but can rather, by reason of its scale and effects, be better achieved at Union level, the Union may adopt measures, in accordance with the principle of subsidiarity as set out in Article 5 of the Treaty on European Union.
Ós rud é nach féidir leis na Ballstáit cuspóir an Rialacháin seo, mar atá faireachán agus tuairisciú a dhéanamh ar astaíochtaí CO2 agus ídiú breosla feithiclí nua tromshaothair san Aontas, a ghnóthú go leordhóthanach agus, de bharr fhairsinge agus éifeachtaí an Rialacháin seo, gur fearr is féidir iad a ghnóthú ar leibhéal an Aontais, féadfaidh an tAontas bearta a ghlacadh, i gcomhréir le prionsabal na coimhdeachta a leagtar amach in Airteagal 5 den Chonradh ar an Aontas Eorpach.
