Suspending the application of the rules on extended producer responsibility for batteries and waste batteries and packaging and packaging waste (Omnibus VIII on environmental legislation)
20 October 2026 | Negotiating mandate for trilogue talks
What's next: Trilogue talks with the Council can begin once the Council side has its own mandate. Closed-door rounds follow; timing is not published.
Summary: This proposal would temporarily pause rules that require manufacturers to take responsibility for managing batteries and packaging waste at the end of their product's life. The suspension aims to provide relief from these environmental compliance requirements.
