Summary

The draft law amending the Waste Act and related other laws (75 SE) amends the provisions of the Waste Act regarding hazardous waste and the harmful effects of waste in connection with the changed European Union law. An authorization norm is also being prepared, on the basis of which the regulations regarding the classification of waste will be specified. The section dealing with the harmful effects of waste in the current Waste Act is declared invalid. The descriptions of the harmful effects of waste have been adopted into the Waste Act from Annex III of Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council, which deals with waste and which repeals certain directives (OJ L 312, 22.11.2008, pp. 3–30). Annex III of the Framework Directive has been updated and established as Commission Regulation (EU) No 1357/2014 replacing Directive 2008/98/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (on waste and certain directives are repealed) Annex III (OJ L 365, 19.12.2014, pp. 89–96), which entered into force on 1 June 2015. In connection with the entry into force of the new, directly applicable regulation on hazardous properties, the relevant provisions of the Waste Act will also be updated and changes will be made to the implementing acts on the classification of waste.
