I've read a couple of articles on this from different sources and it certainly wouldn't be compulsory scrapping. The idea would be to offer a discount way above the car's actual value if the owner traded it in for a new 'cleaner' car. Although there are no specifics mentioned, my guess would be that the new car would have to meet any emissions criteria specified by the government.
