Now the European Council announced that it has adopted its negotiating mandate to open talks with the European Parliament on a proposal to bring EU legislation on cross-border waste shipments up to date. The objective is to ensure that international shipments of waste don&#8217;t pose a threat to human health and the environment and to foster the use of waste as a resource in a circular economy. The European Parliament has already called for stricter rules for waste shipment back in January 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The Council made several modifications to the original proposal. Such as &#8220;more realistic timelines in the procedure of prior written notification and consent, &#8216;PIC&#8217;&#8221;, as it says in a statement. Exporters must notify and receive written consent from the countries of dispatch, destination and transit prior to export.<\/p>\n<p>Concerning shipments outside EU Member States, the Council has reached an agreement that waste management facilities in the country of destination should be audited by independent bodies every three years. The audits would demonstrate that the facilities treat waste in an environmentally sound manner, and operators would only be allowed to export waste to these facilities if this was the case. To prevent waste from being smuggled as used goods, the Council agreed to empower the Commission to adopt implementing acts laying down criteria for distinguishing used goods from waste. The Commission would also be able to harmonise the classification of waste at EU level, in particular by adopting delegated acts to set criteria, such as contamination thresholds for waste, to determine how harmful it is and to avoid misunderstandings as to whether it should be subject to the notification procedure.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/waste-management-world.com\/materials\/european-council\/\">Waste Management World<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-367\/\">European Council ready to start negotiations on waste shipment rules<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,10114,6210],"class_list":["post-114458","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-european-council","tag-waste-shipment"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114458","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=114458"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/114458\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=114458"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=114458"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=114458"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
