The Agency’s most important contribution may be found in its participation in devising the EUROSUR system (adopted by the Council on 14 and 15 December 2006), focusing on the Union’s southern and eastern borders, the first priority of which must be to integrate all the maritime surveillance facilities in order to fulfil as well as possible the tasks assigned to it: to reduce the number of illegal immigrants arriving on EU territory; to step up internal security as a whole by helping combat and dismantle cross-border crime; and to step up search and rescue capabilities so as to save more lives (in all three cases, the success of EUROSUR requires the full involvement of the third countries concerned, particularly those of the southern shore ...[+++] of the Mediterranean, from which the greatest migratory pressure on the EU comes).

7. Is of the opinion that the surge in demand for natural resources, basic products and services driven by the growth of developing economies may bring about inflationary pressure on the EU Member States’ economies; considers that strategies of smart technological growth and anti-inflationary economic policy tools and a framework for possible macroeconomic adjustment, together with strategies to reduce total resource consumption and the environmental footprint of economies should be prepared in order to address this problem;

32. Encourages the Commission to introduce new measurements and standards that can allow a fixed value to be attached for the purpose of associating CO2 emissions reduction with helpful improvements such as gear shift indicators, use of econometers, high efficiency air conditioning, improved lubricants, "start /stop systems at idle", low rolling resistance tyres and tyre pressure monitoring systems the use of which may depend upon individual driver behaviour; also recommends the introduction of technology in vehicles to encourage env ...[+++]ironmentally aware driver behaviour such as displays showing fuel consumption and cost for the current journey alongside the corresponding figures for frequently travelled routes, active speed limit warning devices and driver aids to control speeds, including speed-limiters;
