EU Institutions to Discuss Proposed RoHS Amendments
The European Commission, Parliament and the EU Council of Ministers will discuss proposed amendments to the RoHS Directive at their trilogue meeting on 21 June.
The main objective of the amended text is to exempt the resale of used electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) and spare parts that contain hazardous substances beyond the 2019 deadline.
The RoHS Directive states that both the first placing on the market and secondary market operations, such as reselling, of non-compliant EEE will be prohibited after 22 July 2019.
EU ambassadors agreed on the EU Council of Ministers’ negotiating position on 14 June – the same day the European Parliament said it is ready to start negotiations. Its Environment Committee (Envi) voted to approve the changes on 30 May.
