This paper details a proposed regulatory approach to product stewardship for two categories of electrical/electronic-products (e-products), solar photovoltaic (PV) systems and small electrical and electronic equipment (SEEE). The Department of Climate Change, Energy, the Environment and Water (the department) is seeking feedback on this proposal. On 21 October 2022 the Hon Tanya Plibersek MP, the Minister for the Environment and Water, announced the Australian Government’s intent to develop a regulated product stewardship scheme for e-products. Following this announcement, the department consulted with key stakeholders to develop a potential product stewardship scheme that could be enforced through regulation. This scheme would reduce negative effects on the environment and human health, through regulations designed to: • maximise the amount of waste from e-products (e-waste) that is directly collected and recycled by the scheme via free disposal services provided to households and small businesses • improve recycling outcomes for e-waste collected outside of the scheme’s disposal services (for example, e-waste collected from large businesses and government agencies by commercial service providers). It is anticipated that scheme costs would be passed on to consumers through slightly higher product prices. To minimise these costs, the proposed scheme is designed to promote competition in the delivery of scheme activities, while achieving the desired recycling and waste avoidance outcomes.
