The RoHS and WEEE Directives have just recently been approved by the EU legislature. The proposed directive text is available in many locations on the web, but the final agree-to text (including all ammendments between the European Commission and the European Parliment) has not been available. However, it looks like DTI may have a sneak-peak at http://www.dti.gov.uk/support/summary.htm
