The Waste Electronic and Electrical Equipment Directive is European Law that was to be transposed into UK law in August 2004. Due to the nature and complexities of this new legislation its transposition has been deferred.
The WEEE Directive places a responsibility on the producer of EEE to finance the end-of-life recycling and recovery costs, in order that private households can return WEEE without charge.
The following categories are covered by the Directive:
- Large and small household appliances
- IT and communication equipment
- Consumer entertainment equipment (such as TVs, videos and hi-fis)
- Lighting
- Electrical and electronic toys
- Tools
- Leisure and sports equipment
- Medical devices (with some exceptions)
- Monitoring and control equipment
- Automatic dispensers
