amendment 33
First part
‘In order to prevent littering and other inappropriate forms of disposal resulting in marine litter containing plastic, consumers need to be properly informed about the most appropriate waste disposal options available and/or waste disposal options to be avoided, best practices with regard to waste disposal and the environmental impact of bad disposal practices as well as about the plastic content in certain single-use plastic products and fishing gear, in order to incentivise responsible consumer behaviour in the correct disposal of waste. Therefore, Member States should be required to take awareness raising measures ensuring that such information is given to the consumers. This information should include the impact of inappropriate waste disposal on the sewer network. The information should not contain any promotional content encouraging the use of the single-use plastic products. Member States should be able to choose the measures which are most appropriate based on the nature of the product or its use. The fight against litter is a shared effort between competent authorities, producers and consumers. Producers of single-use plastic products and fishing gear containing plastic should cover the costs of the awareness raising measures as part of their extended producer responsibility obligation.’

ALDE:
amendment 27
First part
‘Certain single-use plastic products end up in the environment as a result of inappropriate disposal through sewers or other inappropriate release into the environment. Disposal through sewers may in addition cause substantial economic damage to sewer networks by clogging pumps and blocking pipes. For these products, there is frequently a significant lack of information about the material characteristics of these products and the appropriate waste disposal. Therefore, single-use plastic products that are frequently disposed of through sewers or otherwise inappropriately disposed of should be subject to marking requirements and awareness-raising measures. The marking should inform consumers about appropriate waste disposal options and/or waste disposal options to be avoided, about the negative environmental impacts of litter as a result of inappropriate disposal, the presence of plastics in the product and the recyclability of the product. The Commission should be empowered to establish a harmonised format for the marking and when doing so should, where appropriate, test the perception of the proposed marking with representative groups of consumers to ensure that it is effective, clearly understandable, and not misleading, and should also consider existing voluntary agreements.’
Second part
‘With regard to fishing gear, the marking requirements adopted pursuant to Regulation (EC) No 1224/2009 should apply. Member States should implement the FAO Voluntary Guidelines on Marking Fishing Gear.’
