The conclusion of the final report of the Interdepartmental Climate Policy Research (IBO) contains a series of measures that, according to the research committee set up by Rob Jetten, Minister of Climate and Energy, are necessary to achieve the cabinet’s climate objectives. It is almost inevitable that this will include measures that affect Dutch motorists. That turns out to be the case. The Commission of Inquiry recommends, among other things, the introduction of a ban on the sale of new business cars from 2025. The advice is that no new business car may have a combustion engine from that year onwards. Incidentally, it already emerged in the middle of last year that the cabinet was preparing legislation that should make such a ban on new business cars with a combustion engine possible. The committee of inquiry also advises "[…] sharper pricing of fossil vehicles". In other words, cars with a combustion engine that use fossil fuels. This ‘more competitive pricing’ must include an – yes – increase in the purchase tax (bpm) via ‘pay according to use’. In addition, the government should reduce emissions from current vehicles by making the use of biofuels mandatory. Minister of Climate and Energy Rob Jetten says he will use the advice of the research committee to include extra climate policy in the spring memorandum.
