Waste Shipment Regulation report published

摘要

On 4th July 2012 the European Union Network for the Implementation and Enforcement of Environmental Law (IMPEL) released its report on the Practicability and Enforceability of the Waste Shipment Regulation (WSR). The report highlights a number of conclusions in relation to practicability and enforceability issues across many aspects of the WSR. In this respect, it notes that there is a significant problem with the enforcement of the WSR in some Member States, such as on effective inspection systems. In addition, the practical application of notification requirements would be significantly enhanced by an electronic system.
