1. For the purpose of increasing the quality, control and traceability of the products landed, increasing energy efficiency, contributing to environmental protection and improving safety and working conditions, the EMFF may support investments improving the infrastructure of fishing ports, auctions halls, landing sites and shelters, including investments in facilities for waste and marine litter collection.

17. Welcomes the fact that, in its communication, the Commission addresses various specific waste challenges such as waste prevention, marine litter and food waste; points to the direct economic impact on businesses and consumers of food waste, owing to the costs of waste disposal and the economic losses caused by throwing away saleable or edible food (more than 100 million tonnes of food goes to waste in the EU every year); recalls that one euro spent on fighting food waste could prevent 250 kg of food, worth EUR 500, from being wasted; highlights the environmental and economic potential of a recirculation of nutrients between urban ...[+++]and rural areas, and of “closing the loop” between cities and the agricultural industry; urges the Commission to address the issues of food waste and nutrient recirculation in the context of the CEP; calls on the Commission to introduce separate collection schemes for food and organic waste (including, where relevant, door-to-door collection), and to prioritise the composting of organic material;

9. Calls for more public and private investment in research and technologies aimed at obtaining more sustainable plastics (i.e. consuming less raw material while maintaining the same quality, reusability and recyclability) and a better integration of various types in production processes and reprocessing activities, without affecting the quality of materials; considers that new technologies are also needed for enhanced plastic biodegradation processes, waste sorting methods, processing and mechanical recycling, recovery of plastics from oceans, eco-design and smart packaging; believes that to this end, Horizon 2020 could offer opportunities to respond to this important societal need and that the advantages would be far-reaching, for both ...[+++]the environment and citizens, from the creation of new economic activities (for instance high-standard sorting carried out with human labour power) to the reduction of marine litter and health-related risks; stresses that this can offer young people in particular the opportunity to engage in new fields of activity and thus become integrated into the job market; points out that full implementation of EU waste legislation could save EUR 72 billion a year, increase the annual turnover of the EU waste management and recycling sector by EUR 42 billion, and create over 400 000 jobs by 2020; emphasises that other EU funds can also contribute significantly to the development of collection and recycling infrastructure if they are used consistently in accordance with the waste hierarchy in the Framework Directive on Waste;
