“The proposed provision should take into consideration the case of State of
Palestine which is under occupation. Being under occupation means not to be able
of controlling its borders and associated problems will be faced during the transboundary
movements of electrical and electronic waste and used electrical and
electronic equipment.”

From p. 1 of response by State of Palestine to Basel Secretariat. 2015. ‘Decision BC-12/5 | Technical Guidelines on Transboundary Movements of Electrical and Electronic Waste and Used Electrical and Electronic Equipment, in Particular Regarding the Distinction between Waste and Non-Waste under the Basel Convention’. http://www.basel.int/TheConvention/ConferenceoftheParties/Meetings/COP12/tabid/4248/mctl/ViewDetails/EventModID/8051/EventID/542/xmid/13027/Default.aspx.
