Právní regulace nakládání s primárními mikroplasty na úrovni eu a v některých evropských zemích
AI summary Read the abstract
This legal review examines EU-level regulation of primary microplastics, comparing existing national measures in several EU member states — particularly regarding microbeads — with the proposed amendment to the REACH Regulation. The author finds significant variation in national approaches and discusses how the harmonisation regulation would change the management of primary microplastics across the EU.
The author deals with the legal regulation of the management of primary microplastics at the EU level. The article is mainly devoted to the comparison of the already existing legal regulation of some EU Member States, which have already adopted measures concerning the handling of so-called microbeads. Furthermore, the author deals with the comparison of these legal regulations with the prepared amendment to the REACH Regulation, which should fundamentally affect the management of primary microplastics within the EU and also serves as a harmonization regulation. Following this comparison, the author also briefly discusses the possibility of member states retaining their national legislation, especially if this legislation is broader than European legislation.

Worldwide actions against plastic pollution from microbeads and microplastics in cosmetics focusing on European policies. Has the issue been handled effectively?
AI summary Read the abstract
This review examines global policy actions targeting microbeads and microplastics in cosmetics, with a focus on European regulations. Researchers found that while several countries have implemented bans on microbeads in rinse-off products, enforcement and scope vary widely, and many policies still contain significant loopholes. The study suggests that current regulatory approaches have been only partially effective and calls for more comprehensive, harmonized measures.
