Following our previous updates and the upheaval that has occurred in the market, we would like to revisit the Waste Laws of 2011 to 2022 and the upcoming deadlines concerning the disposal of certain products in the market.
The Ministry of Energy, Commerce, and Industry announces an extension for the submission of applications under the 2nd Call of the Scheme until Thursday, August 1, 2024.
Please note that, due to additional savings anticipated from the 1st Call, applications will be accepted for a total budget of €7 million. However, the maximum amount of approvals will not exceed the available budget of the Grant Scheme. Priority will be determined based on the order of submission (immediate evaluation).
Applications and the required supporting documents must be submitted electronically only at https://fundingapps.meci.gov.cy, using the Chrome, Firefox, or Edge browsers.
For more information, interested parties can contact the responsible Officers at the following phone numbers: 22867275/ 22867279/ 22867243/ 22867154/ 22867388.
Please find attached (PDF below), for your information, the final form of the “Business Guide for Offers and Discounts Practices”, from the Consumer Protection Service.
The guide differs in several points from the draft that was sent, as a result of the comments of the (SPPEK) Association of Consumer Goods Suppliers and Retailers Associations that were finally adopted and taken into account in the drafting of the final text.
The purpose of the guide is to provide guidance to businesses on how the provisions of the Law should be interpreted and applied in relation to traders’ promotions and to facilitate their correct application.
For any additional information or clarification please contact the Consumer Protection Service at 22200900 / 22200921.
