Defra have confirmed that the Secretary of State has agreed to their recommendation to set a UK WEEE Compliance Fee for 2023 and that the Joint Trade Association have won the bid to run the scheme for another year.
The Joint Trade Association (JTA) is chaired by Andrew Mullen, Beko. Paul Hide, AMDEA, chairs the Joint Trade Association Ltd company which provides oversight to the JTA working groups and leads the Material Focus team.
A big note of thanks goes to the JTA sub-group team that gave a large amount of time to prepare the JTA’s winning application.
The JTA are currently preparing a cross industry response to the Defra consultation and call for evidence on the WEEE Scheme review. The deadline for our submission is March 7.
