ETCs: consortia of national institutions
work under contract with the European Environment Agency (EEA)
assistance within a particular topic (resources and waste in our case)
existed since 1997

Data processing and data management
The ETCs do not collect data
Data from Eurostat, DGEnv, Basel Convention
Regulation on Waste Statistics important in the future
Close cooperation with DGEnv and Eurostat– Overlapping reporting obligations
