Economic Choices after the Constitutional Council Strikes Down the Government\u2019s Bill"},"content":{"rendered":"<div class='post-container'>The Constitutional Council struck down the proposed carbon tax on 28 December 2009 because it infringed the principle of equal treatment in respect of public taxes within the company sector. The main reason cited by the Council was the exemption granted to all companies subject to the European CO2 quota system.\nThe combination of a national carbon tax with the European system of emissions trading in fact raises a twofold difficulty: a market mechanism for carbon pricing has to be made to co-exist with a fiscal pricing mechanism and, at the same time, European rules governing markets have to be made to converge with national rules.\nTo improve the scheme struck down by the Constitutional Council, it is necessary to revise the modalities for introducing the carbon tax into the company sector. To achieve this, it is useful to remember how the existing mechanisms function and what choices were made by those countries that have successfully introduced a national tax running parallel to the European CO2 quota system. This is the aim of this article, in which we also examine the different possible ways out of the present situation.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Constitutional Council struck down the proposed carbon tax on 28 December 2009 because it infringed the principle of equal treatment in respect of public taxes within the company sector.
