You can provide feedback on the latest status as presented in an update meeting on April 16, 2021 to contact@ecosmartphones.info and it will be considered in the impact assessment of policy options and the refinement of possible policy measures.
This section presents all the documents published during the preparatory study and was updated regularly.
Relative to similar preparatory Ecodesign studies the planning for this study is very short in time and therefore providing input, comments and feedback will need to be proportional to this.
All comments will be published and used for the work of this preparatory study.
