Law 1259/2008 establishes environmental citations (comparendos) for waste-management violations and citizen behavior; it is a general enforcement/penalty instrument for existing waste regulations, not a circular-economy policy lever (no EPR, recycled content, deposit return, right-to-repair, or biological-cycle mandate).
