-When preparing the current inventory data, statistical data are only available for the previous reporting year, as the Federal Statistical Office's waste statistics are one year behind schedule.

For this reason, annual recalculations are required for the previous year. +When preparing the current inventory data, statistical data are only available for the previous reporting year.
