That way it should be ensured that valuable materials found in waste are returned into the European economy, thus making progress in the implementation of the Raw Materials Initiative15 and the creation of a circular economy. __________________ 15, and, in the case of packaging materials, without prejudice to food safety, consumer health and food contact materials. __________________ 15 COM(2013) 442.
