The decision consequently deferrs the deadlines that were orginanly to be met in the first quarter of 2024:
- producer registration in the central producer register (DPA-System)
- selection of a packaging collective scheme
- reporting of expected marketed amounts of packaging for the entire year 2024
A new final deadline has not been communicated.
