Consultation on WEEE Compliance Fee Methodology 2022

The UK Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) Regulations 2013 establish a system in which producers of equipment are required to pay for the cost of collection, treatment, recovery and recycling of WEEE arising from private households. They establish a system of annual collection targets that are imposed on producer compliance schemes (PCSs). The Secretary of State has powers to approve a compliance fee methodology as an alternative form of compliance payable by PCSs that fail to meet their collection target.

This consultation contains two proposals for a compliance fee methodology and administrator for 2022.  Comments are invited on whether the Secretary of State should set a compliance fee for 2022 and if so the extent to which each of the proposals meet the published evaluation criteria.
