Where can I read the full UK WEEE Regulations?
The Directive is implemented in the UK through two sets of regulations. The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Regulations 2006, which implements most aspects of the WEEE Directive in the UK, came into force on 2 January 2007. The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (Waste Management Licensing) (England and Wales) Regulations 2006 came into force on 5 January 2007. These Regulations cover England and Wales and deal with the site licensing requirements and WEEE treatment requirements of the WEEE Directive. Similar but separate legislation will be introduced in Scotland and Northern Ireland.
