  31. Administrative fee 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia

  32. Waste Information System (1) • New system was introduced in 2004 • Based on waste return (just like the income tax return system) • Reportshould be sent to the regional inspectoratesonce a yearexcept collectors and treaters » quarterly • Deadline:1 March each year • Obligor:each party who produces, collects, transports, treats waste 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia

Waste Information System (2) Specific reporting obligations from 2007 for dismantlers & treaters: » obliged to inform both the transportation authority and the environmental inspectorate on • taking over, dismantling end-of-life vehicles and delivering the different kind of waste using the special report format 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia

  34. Strength of the Hungarian system - strict and well-defined regulation containing both the technical and personal requirements, - determined obligations concerning the registration and reporting tasks, - the transportation authority does not issue a permit for the vehicle disassembling plants until they have got the permit from the environmental inspectorate 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia

  35. Weaknesses of the Hungarian system - difficult to get a dismantling permit because of high financial investment - insufficient information on the non-registered (illegal) car disassembling plants (less and less) - lack of civil servants to make a survey of the non-registered plants 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia

  36. Concluding remarks • licencing process is quite complex including three other competent authorities • technical and personal requirements seem to be high for a small dismantling plant • administrative fee is high for a small dismantling plant 12-13 June 2008 INFRA workshop in Valencia
