At present, a draft
1 of the new rules on implementation of
extended producer/importer
2 obligations (hereinafter - the
"New Rules"), which, presumably, will
replace the existing ones
3 (hereinafter - the "Current
Rules"), is under public discussion.
The amendments, which are to be introduced by the New Rules, are
of mostly editorial nature made for the purposes of compliance with
the new Environmental Code. In this regard, this alert will
highlight only the most significant ones.
Thus, one of such significant amendments is the proposal to
exclude the provisions on specialised organisations with which the
operator
4 is obliged to sign agreements on performance
of collection, transportation, processing, disposal and use of
waste generated after loss of consumer properties by the
products/goods as well as their packaging.
