New court ruling of 23 March 2023. Matter now closed. Cyclevia is focused on the industry’s future.

On 17 October 2022 in this same section, we informed you of the partial suspension of Cyclevia’s government approval following a decision by the Administrative Tribunal of Paris (court ruling of 1 August 2022) and the individual action of one of the industry’s stakeholders.

Following a new court ruling on 23 March 2023 and the modification of certain provisions set out in the “collection-transfer station operator” and “treatment operator” standard contracts, this partial suspension has now been lifted by the Tribunal who considers that the disputed clauses are now compliant.

Even if the purpose of the first ruling was not to question our producer responsibility organization’s government approval or compromise the scheme’s smooth operation, Cyclevia duly acknowledges the second ruling and can now continue its mission with peace of mind, enabling it to mirror its first year and continue on its promising path to success.
