By January each driver will pay extra for this service

Air pollution has become a serious problem in Kosovo. Even very old cars, which are not few in number, are considered one of the biggest cause of environmental pollution in the country.

On this subject last night, KTV's active show Minister for Environment and Space Planning Fatmir Matoshi spoke on.

Matoshi has indicated that while the vehicle's technical checkup will be measured the transmission of automotive gases into the air and each vehicle will be equipped with an environmental ʹpulla

“E we have sponsored an administrative guide aimed at measuring gases in technical controls, this directive is due to take effect in February of this year, while Minister Lekaj has demanded that it enter into force on June 1st. Implementation of the directive was carried out by the Ministry of Infrastructure, from June 1st, the instruction has come into force for six months, it soon concludes that technical checks are equipped with equipment measuring gas emissions from cars to air”, Matos said, broadcast the signal newspaper.

But what about old cars that are not acceptable to the environment?

A car can be considered technically irregular if gas emissions are higher than acceptable to European standards. I have to fix the vehicle, put in equipment when the car is in good technical condition, don't name too much gas in the air. A stamp is placed that indicates this car can move”, Mattoshi explained.

So, as Matosh says, besides control of brakes, tires, the engine of the Manicna we'll have additional controls that also involve emissions.

For that service citizens will pay extra.

The “of course it has to pay extra, what people have to pay for is that everyone technically has their car in order and environmentally acceptable. It's mandatory for everyone, from January each one should go get that environmental stamp, when you drive a year”, he said further.

In terms of the fee citizens will pay for placing the environmental formula, the Signal newspaper has sent questions to the minister of Infrastructure's address, Pal Lekaj, the latter has promised that soon he will return.

Still no one knows what the citizens will pay for this additional service.

We remember that recently the Kosovo Central Bank (BQK) has made a decision to expensive auto insurance for 26%. Automobile executives are obliged to pay insurance for 26 percent more expensive.
