Accreditation

91 Accreditation

In deciding whether to accredit a proposed voluntary product stewardship scheme for a product the chief executive must have regard to—

(a) whether the application for accreditation meets the requirements of this part for an application; and
(b) whether the proposed scheme meets the requirements of this part for accreditation; and
(c) whether the proposed scheme’s targets are likely to be met within the time frames stated in the scheme; and
(d) whether the proposed scheme is likely to promote waste reduction or reduce environmental impact from disposing of the product without, in either case, causing greater impact over the life cycle of the product; and
(e) whether the proposed scheme is consistent with the State’s obligations under national arrangements; and
(f) if the product is a priority product that was the subject of a scheme invitation—whether the proposed scheme is likely to achieve the expected outcomes of any proposed voluntary product stewardship scheme stated in the invitation; and
(g) if the product is a priority product, whether or not it was the subject of a scheme invitation—whether the proposed scheme takes account of recommendations included in the priority statement for the priority product.
