"The use of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment is a major problem for public health, for the environment and for waste management. These risks are even greater in recycling and recovery operations under poor conditions in developing countries, especially in the case of illegal exporting for disposal in dumps in poorer countries. With this draft legislation, all the material in question will be included under this directive. In future, therefore, all materials will have to comply with the provisions of the directive if this is deemed necessary in an environmental assessment.
This directive contributes to the setting out of clear rules in the Member States as regards placing these substances on the market, and subsequently reusing them. This directive will lead to a significant improvement to the present situation, which is why I voted in favour. However, I believe that some hazardous substances that were left out of the directive should be included within the next three years, following a review and assessment of their impact."@en1
