(23) The OCTs are fragile island environments requiring adequate protection, including in respect of waste management. In respect of radioactive waste, Article 198 of the Euratom Treaty and the related secondary legislation provide for this, except with regard to Greenland, to which the Euratom Treaty does not apply. For other waste, it should be specified which Union rules are to apply in respect of the OCTs.
