9 EU E-waste Requirements MONDAY, 7 FEBRUARY 2011 The European Parliament votes for tougher e-waste rules Last Thursday the European Parliament voted to press ahead with plans to tighten up the rules on waste electronic and electrical equipment (WEEE). They also want to make the rules simpler and introduce tougher measures to prevent the export of e-waste to developing countries. The European Parliament has proposed a 2012 target for Member States to collect 4kg of e-waste per inhabitant (the existing level) or the same weight as in 2010, whichever is greater. But by 2016 the figure goes up to 85% of the e-waste they produce. The legislation is not just about safe disposal, though. MEP s recommended a 50-75% recycling target (depending on the material involved) in order to reclaim valuable raw materials, and a new 5% re-use goal. With a significant amount of e-waste declared as "reusable" and illegally exported for treatment in developing countries, the European Parliament also supported the Commission s proposals for stricter inspections of shipments. Parliament believes that the exporter should carry the burden of proof that goods are reusable. Karl-Heinz Florenz (EPP, DE), who steered the draft legislation through Parliament, commented that "we can no longer afford to waste our waste. 9 9
