The RoHS 1 directive took effect on 1 July 2006, and is required to be enforced and became a law in each member state.[3] The directive restricts (with exceptions) the use of ten hazardous materials in the manufacture of various electronic and electrical equipment. In addition to the exceptions, there are exclusions for products such as solar panels. It is closely linked with the Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive (WEEE) 2002/96/EC (now superseded[4]) which sets collection, recycling, and reclamation goals for electrical goods and is part of a legislative initiative to solve the problem of huge amounts of toxic electronic waste. In speech, RoHS is often spelled out, or pronounced[citation needed] , , , or , and refers to the EU standard, unless otherwise qualified.
