Article 14 of the new WEEE Directive requires manufacturers to provide information to product users on the process and benefits of dealing with WEEE in accordance with the Directive (as opposed to just thowing it away with other household waste).
This requirement is not new - it was previously contained in article 10 of the old WEEE Directive. The Directive gives Member States freedom to decide how to require manufacturers to deliver this information and UK government guidance on the Directive makes it clear that providing a web link to the information in the user instructions, with the bulk of the information accessible via the web link, is an acceptable solution. I’d be very interested to hear what the Group’s experience of the requirements of other Member States is in this regard.
