9. Annex I Expert Group Questions  What are the key social, technical and economic factors driving strategy choice in the transport sector? What is the potential to control emissions in this rapidly growing sector in the short and long term?  Is quantitative information available to assess the relative advantages of alternative transport policy options? What evaluation systems are needed to assess different policies?  How far can countries rely on voluntary agreements with vehicle manufacturers to deliver transport sector emissions abatement, in the Kyoto time frame and beyond?  Is the focus on policies to address passenger road transport at the expense of promising policy approaches in other areas of transport?  Is there a role for international collaboration in transport policy- making? If so, in what areas?
