European Parliament and the European Council of 2005-05-03. Its main purpose is to prevent waste from electrical and
electronic equipment and to promote reuse, recycling and other forms of recovery to reduce both the volume of waste for
disposal and the inclusion in waste of harmful substances from electrical and electronic equipment.
