Recital 19
(19) Directive 2008/98/EC lays down general minimum requirements for extended producer responsibility schemes. Those requirements should apply to extended producer responsibility schemes established by this Directive. This Directive, however, establishes additional extended producer responsibility requirements, for example, the requirement on producers of certain single-use plastic products to cover the costs of clean-up of litter. In order to create incentives for recyclable and bio-degradable plastics, the provisions governing extended producer responsibility should not be applicable for producers of biodegradable or recycled products.
