Question 19188 — environment

Summary

Mr. Laurent Furst questions the Minister of State, Minister of Ecological and Inclusive Transition, on the effectiveness of administrative fines owed by marketers who do not fulfill their obligations in terms of extended producer responsibility, particularly with regard to the development of online platforms based abroad. These behaviors persist and generate distortions of competition. They impact in particular the financial resources intended for local authorities and the recycling sector. The provisions of article L. 541-10-11 of the environmental code provide for the possibility for the ministry responsible for the environment to impose administrative fines the amount of which cannot exceed, per unit or per tonne of product concerned, 1,500 euros for a natural person and 7,500 euros for a legal entity. Mr. Member wishes to have information on the effective implementation of these fines and their effectiveness. He asks what is the average amount of fines imposed in general against marketers and particularly against online platforms based abroad, as well as the state of ongoing litigation. He also wishes to know what measures are planned to strengthen this control and constrain all marketers to respect their obligations.
