On 15 June 2001 the European Commission approved the contracts concluded by the French company Eco-Emballages SA concerning its system of selective collection and recovery of household packaging waste. In so doing, the Commission has, for the first time, defined the principles of competition with which such collective systems must comply. This decision in no way contradicts its position vis-à-vis Duales System Deutschland AG (DSD), which dealt solely with one aspect of the contract on the use of the 'green dot' logo in Germany.
