The Department for Business has opted to increase its proposed WEEE collection targets for 2016 following the release of household WEEE collection data.

BIS originally set out a proposed collection target of 528,687 tonnes for 2016, following the publication of data from the WEEE settlement centre for 2015. The settlement centre data suggested that around 512,000 tonnes of WEEE had been collected for the year.

The target for 2016 is 544,341 Tonnes of household WEEE.
