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 | Plenary sent the file back to committee
What's next: The committee will keep working on the text — typically to continue negotiations — before it returns to plenary. No deadline applies.
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.
