Short justification
The objective of this initiative is to create a European Disability Card that will serve as proof of a recognised disability status. The proposal provides for mutual recognition of the European Disability Card in all Member States, thereby granting cardholders travelling to or visiting another Member State access on equal terms and conditions as the residents of the visited Member State, to existing special conditions or preferential treatment in relation to various services, activities and facilities.
Your rapporteur welcomes the Commission’s proposal, which answers to the long-standing call of all disability movements to ensure better treatment of persons with disabilities and allow them to benefit from special conditions outside of their home country. Your rapporteur also supports the Commission’s initiative to combine the European Disability Card with the European Parking Card for persons with disabilities into one single proposal.
This proposal will establish the main rules governing the issuance of the European Disability Card, and the European Parking Card for persons with disabilities, as well as common standardised models for the two cards.
As regards the European Parking Card for persons with disabilities, the proposal will replace the system put in place by Council Recommendation 98/376/EC as specific national additions and deviations from the recommended model have led to a proliferation of different cards hindering their cross-border recognition. The current proposal therefore provides for common rules and conditions governing the issuance of the card and a common template to be applied by all Member States replacing all the multiple existing national parking cards.
Your Rapporteur believes that this proposal will set the basis for free movement for persons with disabilities, on the same level as any other person. Indeed, whereas all EU citizens have the right to move freely within the Union, in practice this right is often compromised for persons with disabilities, whose mobility in daily life is impeded by a structural lack of accessibility and adequate services. It is urgent to overcome these barriers and ensure full non-discrimination and equality in access to services, so that people with disabilities can enjoy the same rights as the rest of society, also in practice. The creation of a common European Disability Card and a European Parking Card for persons with disabilities is a promising step in this direction. However, the Commission’s proposal can be further improved in this regard.
It is important that the new European cards are easy to access, to use and free of charge. Therefore, your Rapporteur proposes that each Member State shall establish a National Contact Point as a ‘one-stop shop’ providing information and guidance to users on the conditions and services included in the new European cards in their territory, as well as the conditions and services granted under relevant national cards and certificates. These national contact points shall be connected through a European web portal, together with the official websites in each Member State, to facilitate that holders of the respective cards can get a clear overview of the conditions and services applying in each Member State.
Furthermore, your Rapporteur is convinced that the digital format of the European cards will provide substantial added value for the holders, once the technical format and specifications have been set. To this effect, the Commission shall adopt delegated acts no later than 12 months after the entry into force of this Directive, to avoid any unwarranted delays in this process.
Moreover, it is necessary to ensure that holders of the European Disability Card using cross-border passenger services are not negatively impacted in cases where Member States apply different conditions or preferential treatments. Therefore, your Rapporteur proposes that Member States shall ensure that operators provide clear information to travellers at the time of purchase on what parts of the operations where those special conditions or preferential treatments apply, to avoid that passengers travelling from a Member State would risk finding themselves without a valid travel document when entering another Member State.
Still, this proposal should also not impose a bureaucratic burden on Member States which is why your rapporteur decided to refrain from amending the scope and letting Member States decide depending on their current national practices.
Finally, to ensure that this Directive remains fit for purpose and continues to improve the functioning of the European Disability Card and the European Parking Card for people with disabilities, your Rapporteur proposes that the Commission shall regularly assess whether the Directive has met its objectives as well as its interaction with other relevant Union legal acts, and, if appropriate, make a legislative proposal to amend the Directive.
The Committee on Transport and Tourism calls on the Committee on Employment and Social Affairs, as the committee responsible, to take the following into account:
