Abstract In October 2016, the Environmental Services Association enunciated a discussion of the UK PRN/PERN system for packaging waste and possible alternatives to examine whether the existing system for proving compliance with the Packaging Regulations will need to be modified to meet the higher targets that might be imposed either through EU requirements or domestic legislation. The EU Commission's Circular Economy package of December 2015 has a set of proposals for extended producer responsibility schemes which would require extensive changes to the packaging waste recovery system currently operational in the UK.
