What is it?
The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive) came into force in January 2007.
The WEE Directive aims to both reduce the amount of electrical and electronic equipment being produced and to encourage everyone to reuse, recycle and recover it.
The WEEE Directive also aims to improve the environmental performance of businesses that manufacture, supply, use, recycle and recover electrical and electronic equipment.
You may also have obligations under the WEEE Regulations if you are a school or business with electrical or electronic equipment to dispose of, or if you sell electrical or electronic equipment.
