German and UK industry criticise implementation plans for car recycling
The German government has drafted strict new legislation on car recycling, implementing the EU's directive on end-of-life vehicles. If adopted in the autumn by Mr Schröder's cabinet, the German legislation could set the tone for other Member States' implementation of the EU's car recycling laws. In the UK, the motor industry also criticised the lack of consultation in the UK government's implementation plans for this directive.
