(17) In order to ensure the reliability of the data gathered on preparation for re- use it is essential to estdata reliabilish common rules for reporting. Similarlty, it is important to lay down more precise rules on how Member States should report what is effectively recycled and can be counted towards the attainment of the recycling targets. To that effect, as a general rule, the reporting on the attainment of the recycling targets must be based on the input to the final recycling process itself. That process commences following the completion of sorting operations, the purpose of which is to remove materials that should not be subjected to further recycling. Such operations include preliminary sorting and checking of separately collected waste and sorting the waste by type, quality and colour. In order to limit administrative burdens, Member States should be allowed, under strict conditions, to report recycling rates on the basis of the outthroughput of any sorting facilitieoperation. To that end, quality standards should be laid down for the individual waste streams. Losses in weight of materials or substances due to physical and/or chemical transformation processes inherent to the final recycling process, in which waste materials is actually processed into products, materials or substances, should not be deducted from the weight of the waste reported as recycled.

Recital 18
(18) Member States should, for the purposes of calculating whether the preparation for re-use and recycling targets are achieved, be able to take into account products and components that are prepared for re-use by recognised re-use operators and by deposit-refund schemes and the recycling of metals that takes place in conjunction with incineration. In order to ensure a uniform calculation of this data, the Commission will adopt detailed rules on the determination of recognised preparation for re-use operators and deposit-refund schemes, on the quality criteria for recycled metals and on the collection, verification and reporting of data. (This amendment applies throughout the text.)

Recital 25
(25) Littering has direct detrimental impacts on the environment and the wellbeing of citizens, and high clean-up costs are an unnecessary economic burden for society. Accordingly, campaigns need to be conducted to raise public awareness of the need to limit the amount of waste produced and of the harm caused by littering. The introduction of specific measures in waste management plans and proper enforcement by competent authorities should help eradicate this problem.

Recital 28
(28) Statistical data reported by Member States are essential for the Commission to assess compliance with waste legislation across the Member States. The quality, reliability and comparability of statistics should be improved by introducing a single entry point for all waste data, deleting obsolete reporting requirements, benchmarking national reporting methodologies and introducing a data quality check report. Therefore, when reporting on the achievement of the targets set out in waste legislation, Member States shall use the most recent methodology developed by the Commission and the national statistical offices of the Member States. With a view to reducing the administrative workload, reporting obligations and procedures should be harmonised in Regulation (EC) No 2150/2002 on waste statistics.
