- EU Waste legislation: In 2013, the Commission will start a comprehensive review of EU waste policy and legislation covering key targets in the Waste Framework Directive, the Landfill Directive and the Packaging and Packaging Waste Directive, an ex-post evaluation ("fitness check") of five Directives dealing with separate waste streams and an assessment of how the problem of plastic waste can be better tackled.

By setting minimum quality standards for some recycling facilities, a significant improvement is expected, moving from the current situation where only 8 to 10% of wastes are covered by minimum quality standards to a situation where a substantial part of waste for recycling is covered.

Dedicated Horizon 2020 call for proposals: ''Industry 2020 in the circular economy'', €650 million investment in 2016 and 2017 to finance innovative demonstration projects for circular economy and industrial competitiveness Industry-wide Construction and Demolition Waste Management Protocol, to improve the identification, separation at source and collection of waste, as well as logistics, processing, and quality management. Guidance documents in the areas ofwater reuse and green public procurement Guidance on how to integrate circular ...[+++] economy into Best Available Techniques Reference Documents (BREFs) for several industrial sectors, to reduce waste generation, boost recycling and reduce resource use, increasing the sustainability and competitiveness in the industries covered by the Industrial Emissions Directive Revision of guidance on the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive, to address false, unclear, unintelligible, or ambiguous information, including claims related to the circular economy Waste Shipment Regulation: As of mid-2016, a new tool on waste codes is available to customs officials to help identify waste crossing illegally EU borders as non-waste.

3. Stresses that in order to make the EU’s approach to waste streams and the circular economy more consistent within the framework of the ongoing legislative ‘fitness check’, and given that some 40 % of plastic waste derives from packaging and mostly from single-use products while the Packaging Directive is the only one with a specific target for plastic waste collection, it is necessary as a matter of urgency to revise that directive and propose plastic waste norms that go beyond product rules and standards; considers that in order to achieve this, and when drawing up future proposals, the Commission should bear in mind the fact that plastic waste is not a homogeneous material, and that plastic waste streams are made up of a number of mat ...[+++]erials, additives and plastic compounds of different types that need to be processed in different ways; notes, however, that although plastic packaging helps to maintain the quality and extend the shelf-life of products it is not always necessary for product conservation;
