(4a) In article 10, the following paragraph is inserted: 2a. Municipal mixed waste should undergo sorting prior to disposal in landfills and incineration operations to remove materials designed for recycling for the purposes of recycling, and Member States should introduce municipal mixed waste sorting by 1 January 2028. Fully adhering to the waste hierarchy as laid out in Article 4, Member States shall prioritise the separate collection, as laid out in Article 11 paragraph 1 subparagraph 4 (new), and enable municipal mixed waste sorting as the safety net to avoid waste which could have been recycled from being sent to waste incineration or disposed in landfills. As waste which can be recycled that has been recovered from sorting of mixed municipal waste is often contaminated and of poorer quality, it shall be maintained as a separate waste stream from those points of separate collection. Member States shall take every measure to ensure that human contact in the municipal mixed waste sorting is entirely avoided or reduced to the absolute minimum, with a view to minimise the health risks of employees overseeing municipal mixed waste sorting operations, in line with Article 13.
