Statsrådets utredning med anledning av ett förslag till rådets förordning om definition av kriterier för när returpapper upphör att vara avfall

This procedure is a government inquiry regarding a proposed EU regulation that defines the specific criteria under which recovered paper is no longer classified as waste. It aims to standardize the rules for recycling paper across the Union to facilitate the circular economy. This will primarily affect the waste management and recycling sectors, as well as paper manufacturers, by clarifying the legal status of recycled materials and reducing administrative burdens for compliant businesses.
