Brussels, 3 May 2012 -The study on coherence of waste legislation published in March 2012 by the European Commission’s Directorate General for Environment and carried out by BIO Intelligence Service (BIOIS) presents a critical analysis of the waste stream Directives in contributing towards resource efficiency and a “recycling society”.
