Germany · German Bundestag · 15 March 2019
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> How is the Federal Government reacting to the warning letter from the EU Commission (signed by the Transport, Environment and Internal Market Commissioners; see SZ of March 13, 2019, www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/ Grenzwerte-feinstaub-scheuer-1.4365362) to the Federal Minister for Transport and Digital Infrastructure Andreas Scheuer, he wants - contrary to his expressed doubts - the scientific well-founded findings about the dangers of nitrogen dioxide and particulate matter for air quality and health, as well as its legal obligation to practically implement the EU limit values of 40 micrograms of nitrogen dioxide per cubic meter of air on an annual average recommended by the WHO, which Germany also decided on, and what conclusions does the Federal Government draw from this reference from the EU Commission on research and Legal situation, particularly with regard to the federal government's plan to legally reduce the German limit for driving bans below the limit set by the WHO and the EU?

Germany · German Bundestag · 2 November 2018
Originaltext der Frage(n):<br /> <br /> Auf Grundlage welcher Erkenntnisse ist die Bundesregierung in ihrem Eckpunktepapier für „Maßnahmen zur Umsetzung des Konzepts für saubere Luft und die Sicherung der individuellen Mobilität in unseren Städten“ zu der Einschätzung gelangt, dass eine Überschreitung von 50 Mikrogramm Stickstoffdioxid pro Kubikmeter Luft im Jahresmittel als „geringfügig überschritten“ anzusehen ist, obwohl wissenschaftliche Quellen belegen, dass eingeatmetes Stickstoffdioxid schon in geringen Mengen Kopfschmerzen und Schwindel und in höheren Konzentrationen Atemnot sowie Lungenödeme auslösen kann (www.bundestag.de/blob/550740/0ed69bc0c343c0a1ce7c485923dc167c/wd-8-016-18-pdf-data.pdf), und ist für die Bundesregierung die Sicherung der individuellen Mobilität wichtiger als die Gesundheit der Bürgerinnen und Bürger, insbesondere in Innenstädten mit hoher NOx-Belastung?
Germany · German Bundestag · 2 November 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> How does the federal government justify its finding that driving bans up to an annual average of 50 µg/m3 nitrogen dioxide emissions are disproportionate (cf. draft bill for amending the BImSchG), even though all administrative court rulings that have already been issued have examined the proportionality of driving bans and regarded it as given?
Germany · German Bundestag · 2 November 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> On what scientific findings on health impacts is the Federal Government's assumption based that exceeding the nitrogen dioxide limit of 40 µg/m3 by a maximum of 10 µg/m3 is only slight and only requires milder countermeasures than driving bans, and to what extent does this proposal contribute to preventative health protection if, according to the findings of the According to the World Health Organization, long-term exposure to 20 µg/m3 is harmful to health?
Germany · German Bundestag · 12 October 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> To the knowledge of the Federal Government, in how many German cities were the annual average limit value for nitrogen dioxide of 40 micrograms per cubic meter of air (μg/m3) set in Directive 1999/30/EC exceeded in the years 1999 to 2008 (please state the exact number, broken down by year)?
Germany · German Bundestag · 12 October 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> During the negotiations on the Air Quality Directive (2008/50/EC) of the European Parliament and the Council of May 21, 2008, why did the Federal Government not advocate an increase in the annual mean limit value for nitrogen dioxide of 40 micrograms per cubic meter of air (μg/m3), which was already set in Directive 1999/30/EC in 1999, but rather that the deadline for compliance with the limit values for nitrogen dioxide can be extended, and why, to the knowledge of the Federal Government, was the possibility of the European Commission extending the deadline beyond 2010 until December 31, 2014, made extensive use by the responsible authorities of the federal states (cf. the Federal Government's answer to my written question 141 on Bundestag printed matter 19/2766)?
Germany · German Bundestag · 15 June 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> To what extent did the Federal Government advocate an increase in the air quality limit values for nitrogen dioxide or an extension of the deadline for compliance with the limit values, which is valid until January 1, 2010, before the Council's resolution on the Air Quality Directive (2008/50/EC) on May 21, 2008, and if the Federal Government advocated before the Council's resolution on the Air Quality Directive (2008/50/EC) on May 21, 2008 did not advocate for an increase in the air quality limits for nitrogen dioxide or an extension of the deadline for compliance with the limit values, why did it not do so?
Germany · German Bundestag · 7 June 2018
Original text of the question(s):<br /> <br /> To the knowledge of the Federal Government, in how many German cities were the annual average limit for nitrogen dioxide exceeded by 40 micrograms per cubic meter of air (μg/m3) measured in 2008 (please state the exact number)?

Germany · German Bundestag · 1 January 2009
