With the publication of the first implementing decrees, the system for the management of Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment is finally taking off in Italy too, as envisaged by Legislative Decree 151/05 incorporating the European Directives on the matter. The collection systems created to guarantee the recycling of electronic waste, coming together in the Coordination Centre, are for the first time promoting a national convention to present the new “WEEE System” which will become operative in January next year, when the regulations come fully into force.
