PERSPECTIVE PROPOSALS ON EUROPEAN CIRCULAR ECONOMY TARGETS

Much has been said and written about the European Circular Economy proposals that were released recently and the impact on the three key waste directives. Many organisations welcome the acknowledgement of the internal market and priority of resource efficiency and recovery however the proposals still lack the necessary clarity on roles and responsibilities for EPR,

seemingly unfair cost burdens for producers and the absence of strict re-use targets. The following presentations see a variety of perspectives pitch their strategies for circular economy support as well as their main challenges and critiques

11:40 The Policy Proposal Karolina D’Cunha, Acting Deputy Head of Unit – Waste

Management & Recycling, DG Environment – European Commission

12:00 The Industry Proposal Virginia Janssens, Managing Director, EUROPEN

14:30 PANEL: An EU Wide View on Regional Perspectives for Packaging Waste Legislation and Targets

This discussion will see speakers from EU member states, some new, some old, some very close to current waste targets and some who still have a long way to go, partner together to assess how further updates in waste policy and legislation will impact waste management across Europe as a whole.

West Europe: North Europe: Håkon Jentoft, Senior Executive Officer,

City of Oslo – Agency for Waste Management

East Europe: Liliana Nichita, Deputy General Manager, Eco-Rom Ambalaje

South Europe: Argyro Remoundou, Senior Officer, Hellenic Recycling Agency

EXTENDED PRODUCER RESPONSIBILITY: THE DEBATE GOES ON

stakeholders to remain cost efficient? Jan Storm, Specialist - EPR, Waste & Recycle

life-cycle assessments

IMPLEMENTING INDUSTRY-LED WASTE INITIATIVES

With recent proposals indicating that entire responsiblity of costs will be put upon the producer, debates have arisen surrounding the role of other industry players and their commitment to specific waste initiatives.

Key topics to be discussed include:• Who should be responsible for the collection? Municipalities or EPR systems?• How much transparency is needed in an EPR system?
