Kilkis wrote:With great hesitation, not wishing to upset Brexiteers who are suffering a delay hangover, there is an EU Directive, The Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE Directive), Directive 2012/19/EU, which mandates that there must be recycling capability for all electrical and electronic equipment. It came into force in 2003 although it has been amended since. Therefore there ought to be a facility somewhere. You can get the text of it here. I would try asking in a mobile phone shop if they take them back for recycling? As I recall manufacturers do carry some responsibility which they usually exercise through their retail outlets.

Could you advise me when the trial will be, what the charge will be and who will sit in judgement?
