This guidance helps organisations consider submitting a proposal for a compliance fee methodology, in relation to the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) regulations.
The 2013 WEEE regulations established a system of household WEEE collection targets for producer compliance schemes (PCSs). Where a PCS has failed to achieve its collection targets, the PCS can pay a compliance fee in order to meet its obligations.
Defra approves one compliance fee methodology and the administrator to run it for one compliance year only.
You can propose a methodology and an organisation to run it by 30 September. This guidance explains the 6 areas to cover in your proposal and how it will be evaluated.
Submit your proposal to:
