(1a) Simply recycling industrial waste and using it as a fully-fledged secondary raw material results in much higher energy use; in general, goods should therefore be manufactured using alternative methods based on low-energy and low-emission technologies. To speed up progress towards the effective management of secondary raw materials, priority should be given to R&D efforts to determine the quality and usefulness of such waste.

(2a) Industrial waste should be standardised and classified on the basis of its physical properties and chemical composition so that it may have market value for any potential purchasers who have the technological means of making use of it, and the Commission should therefore put forward a proposal for the establishment of an EU secondary raw materials market.

(4a) With a view to preventing the unregulated breaking of vehicles, with parts from those vehicles then being placed on the market to the detriment of road safety, statistical reporting needs to be improved so that the number of vehicles placed on the market in any Member State matches the total number of vehicles that are on the road or have been lawfully scrapped.
