Access to a free and fair market is important for the BDI and the export-oriented German industry. We therefore look forward to the European Commission’s initiative to review the existing regulatory framework on market access conditions in inland navigation. In this context, all hazard charges must be reduced to the same extent on national and international waterways in the EU.

Method. Every quote is verbatim from the organization’s own submission to the European Commission, trimmed to its opening passage and never summarized by a model. Where a submission was filed in another EU language we show the English text the European Commission publishes alongside it, labeled on the quote; the original is one click away at the source. Groupings use the respondent type the organization itself selected when filing. We deliberately do not label anyone “supportive” or “opposed” — you read what they wrote and draw your own conclusion. Organizations only, never individuals. Reused under Commission Decision 2011/833/EU; the European Commission is not liable for this reuse.
