New amendments to the legislation will facilitate collection of wastepaper

31 December 2014 ` 03:40  

The State Duma adopted amendments to the federal law “On wastes of production and consumption”, which will greatly facilitate the collection of raw materials for the production of recycled cardboard, according to the League of wastepaper processors (part of Bumprom industry association). In addition, in the spring of 2015, amendments to the Tax code are expected, which will cancel VAT and personal income tax for the collection of wastepaper.

The League is also involved in the development of technical regulations with the aim of introducing the legal concept of “biodegradable materials”, which currently does not exist. This will include wastepaper into biodegradable materials and foster possible tax breaks and subsidies from the budget for the production of packaging.
