Recital 19

Regulation (EU) 2024/1157 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 April 2024 on shipments of waste, amending Regulations (EU) No 1257/2013 and (EU) 2020/1056 and repealing Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006 (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(19) It is appropriate, for the purpose of ensuring optimal supervision and control, to require prior written consent to shipments of waste destined for recovery, in particular hazardous wastes, wastes not listed in Annex III, Annex IIIA or Annex IIIB and wastes containing or contaminated with persistent organic pollutants (POPs) meeting or exceeding a concentration limit specified in Annex IV to Regulation (EU) 2019/1021 of the European Parliament and of the Council (12). Such a procedure should in turn entail prior notification, which enables the competent authorities to be duly informed so that they can take all necessary measures for the protection of human health and the environment. It should also enable those authorities to raise reasoned objections to such shipments.
