2 Can a front-runner country find incentives in the current EU waste package? Afval- en Materialencongres VVSG-Go4Circle 16 november 2017

3 Package offers few incentives for upscaling existing national policies Focus on capacity building within EU Focus on EU equal level playing field for existing policies no scaling down Recycling targets for municipal waste, packaging waste Mandatory separate collection: no TEEP derogation Extended producer responsibility European end of waste criteria Landfill: ban and reductiontargets Incineration capacities Cohesionfunds: taking account of waste hierarchy

4 Focus on (binding) EU instruments for circular economy Indicators going beyond waste: material leakage, resource productivity, Stimuli for prevention: reuse targets, eco-design, Financial instruments: VAT for recycled content, Circular procurement: criteria, targets EoW EU wide criteria: eg. for plastics Innovation policies for circular business models

8 Circular Economy and the role of the private waste management industry A number of positive elements: The new legally binding targets for recycling and landfill diversion The emphasis on better implementation of waste legislation The promotion of eco-design The emphasis on ensuring that EU funded projects contribute to a circular economy and must be in line with the waste hierarchy

9 Circular Economy and the role of the private waste management industry A number of aspects to be improved: Balance between supply and demand side measures Create resilient markets for recycled materials to ensure the required investments Identify ways to better reflect the externalities caused in the price of virgin materials; to recognize the benefits of using recycled materials

14 CHANGE OF MINDSET ON WASTE: RESOURCES CHANGE IN FLOW OF PROFIT: REUSE, RECYCLING CHANGE THE RULES? PARTNERSHIPS KNOWLEDGE PLATFORMS, ACKNOWLEDGE AND ADDRESS STRUGGLES OF HIGH LANDFILLING COUNTRIES RULES ON EPR: TO FRAME AND GUIDE COOPERATION REALISTIC CALCULATION METHOD & MEASUREMENT POINT HIGH RECYCLING TARGET TO PROMOTE HIGH QUALITY RECYCLING

15 CIRCULAR ECONOMY: ADOPT CIRCULAR MINDSET: COOPERATE WITH MANUFACTURING SECTOR & NEW TECHNOLOGIES CURRENTLY BLOCKED IN SEVERAL UNHELPFUL DEBATES: E.G. WASTE/NON-WASTE : MANUFACTURERS CARES ONLY THAT THEY ARE GETTING THE RAW MATERIALS THEY NEED AT RELIABLE QUALITY AND QUANTITY E.G. SHIPMENT: OPENING UP INTRA-EU BORDERS TO SORTED, DRY RECYCLABLES E.G. REMOVING SUBSIDIES FROM PRIMARY MATERIALS AND REMOVING VAT FROM RECOVERED MATERIALS TO SUPPORT THE SHIFT IN MANUFACTURERS BUYING PATTERNS OUR ANSWER IS YES, ADAPT TO THE CHANGE THAT IS ALREADY HAPPENING
