A Study on the Future Issues Regarding the Small Home Appliance Recycling Law -Based on Comparison with the Other Recycling-Related Laws-
Hiroshi KOBAYASHI
Abstract
The Small Home Appliance Recycling Law was enacted in August 2012 and took effect in April 2013 for the purpose of collecting and recycling valuable metals included in used small home appliances such as mobile phones.
This Law serves as a promotion scheme, which encourages parties concerned to join the system on a voluntary basis and implements recycling based on the current situation in each region under the cooperation among parties, unlike the Home Appliance Recycling Law enacted in 1998 that imposes specific duties on parties concerned to collect and recycle home appliances. Based on awareness of the issue on whether this Law will be legally effective enough just by the promotion scheme, this Article aims to study the significance and future issues of this Law while conducting comparative analysis with the other recycling-related laws such as the Containers and Packaging Recycling Law, the Home Appliance Recycling Law, the Construction Material Recycling Law, the Automobile Recycling Law and the Food Recycling Law.
Key Words: The Small Home Appliance Recycling Law, Promotion Scheme, Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR)
