Directive on common rules promoting the repair of goods 
Call for views in response to proposal for a directive on common rules promoting the repair of goods
 
The Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment is seeking input on a proposed EU Directive that aims to address the issue of premature disposal of repairable consumer goods across the EU.

It seeks to facilitate repair and reuse of goods, making it more convenient and cost-effective for consumers to repair rather than replace items. This initiative aligns with the goals of the European Green Deal, such as reducing waste and carbon emissions.

The proposal includes six policy options, including prioritising repair, establishing a national online platform for repairs and refurbished goods, and obligations for repairers and producers. Feedback on the draft directive is requested by September 8th, 2023.
