Abstract:

Municipal waste if not collected, treated and disposed of properly can cause negative environmental impacts. As a result, the EU has introduced common standards and targets in the form of directives and co-finances waste management infrastructures in specific regions. In this report the Court examined whether these investments in infrastructure have been effective and have helped to achieve EU waste policy objectives.
