The Italian and Finnish position differs from a compromise \u2018general approach\u2019 \u2014 a political agreement between the European Parliament, the European Commission and the Council \u2014 on the PPWR proposal, also circulated among EU diplomats yesterday (12 December).<\/p>\n<p>The joint-document circulated by Finland and Italy also attacks proposed market restrictions related to specific packaging formats, citing a \u201cvery heavy impact\u201d on the agri-food and hospitality sectors. According to the signatories, the upcoming law should \u201cleave the choice open\u201d to packaging alternatives that deliver the best overall environmental outcome in line with a life-cycle assessment. Finland and Italy further claim that reuse and refill targets should be considered \u201conly for products where reuse and refill are technically and practically feasible\u201d. The duo also criticised mandatory reuse targets, especially for food and beverages, saying its impact was not properly assessed, while arguing it could lead to food safety concerns.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.euronews.com\/green\/2023\/12\/13\/finland-and-italy-seek-to-hinder-restrictions-on-single-use-packaging\">Euronews<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/3-445\/\">Finland and Italy seek to hinder restrictions on single-use packaging<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","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":[575,586,1552,829],"class_list":["post-119512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-finland","tag-italy","tag-packaging"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=119512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/119512\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=119512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=119512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=119512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
