NL: Consultation on national waste plan open

In the Netherlands the entire policy for waste can be found in the National Waste Management Plan (LAP). LAP2 will expire in December 2017. LAP3 covers the period 2017-2023, looking ahead to the period up to 2029.
On 26 September a consultation for LAP3 was opened. Stakeholders can submit their view on LAP3 up until 7 November 2016. The policy framework sets out the main points of waste policy. For example, it covers the national objectives for the separate collection of waste and general principles for the use of instruments such as licensing and enforcement. The sector plans flesh out the policy framework for specific categories of waste. Sector plan 41 covers packaging in general.
