Recital 10
(10) Waste prevention is the most efficient way to improve resource efficiency and to reduce the environmental impact of waste. It is important therefore that Member States: - take appropriate measures to prevent waste generation and, in particular by promoting public awareness-raising campaigns and by taking education- and training-related anti-waste measures concerning also reuse, recycling and eco- design, in addition to measures to support business experience in the circular economy, also through charitable donations of food or non-food products that can no longer be sold; - monitor and assess progress in the implementation of such measures. In order to ensure a uniform measurement of the overall progress in the implementation of waste prevention measures, common indicators should be established.

Recital 12
(12) Member States should take measures to promote prevention of food waste in line with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, adopted by the United Nations General Assembly on 25 September 2015, and in particular its target of halving food waste by 2030. These measures should aim to prevent food waste in primary production, in processing and manufacturing, in retail and other distribution of food, in restaurants and food services as well as in households. Having regard to the environmental and economic benefits of preventing food waste, Member States should establish specific food waste prevention measures and should measure progress in food waste reduction. To facilitate exchange of good practice across the EU both between Member States and between food business operators, uniform methodologies for such measurement should be established. Reporting on food waste levels should take place on a biennial basis. In order to prevent food waste, Member States should provide fiscal and financial incentives for the collection of unsold products in the retail sector and in catering services, to be distributed to charitable organisations.

Recital 14 a (new)
(14a) The transition towards a circular economy must seek to achieve the smart, sustainable and inclusive growth goals set out in the Europe 2020 strategy, with particular reference to the targets relating to environmental protection, the shift to clean energy sources, sustainable local development and increased employment in the Member States. The development of a circular economy should, accordingly, also promote the involvement of entities such as small and medium-sized enterprises, social economy enterprises, non-profit institutions and waste management bodies that operate regionally and locally, in order to improve their overall management, foster innovation in processes and products and develop employment in the areas concerned.

Recital 14 b (new)
(14b) Small and medium-sized enterprises, social economy enterprises, non-profit institutions and regional and local operators can play an important role in the collection, reuse and processing of waste. Member States should therefore adopt all the necessary measures, including regulatory and financial incentives, to encourage the involvement of these entities in the transition towards a circular economy, in particular by promoting the participation of social economy operators and compliance with social clauses in public procurement, and promoting the development of the latter also through EU funding programmes.
