Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Regulations)
The Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging Waste) Regulations 1997 impose on producers obligations to recover and recycle packaging waste, and related obligations, in order to attain the targets in article 6(1) of Directive 94/62/EC.
These Regulations amend the fee which is to be charged by the Environment Agency on an application for registration of a scheme under regulations 14 and 15 of those Regulations. The fee is now calculated at the rate of £460 per member of the scheme, rather than on a scale (from £760 to £126 per member) according to the number of members of the scheme. They also increase the targets from 2001 onwards to 56% for recovery and 18% for recycling.
