[F11. For the purposes of calculating and verifying attainment of the targets set in points (a) to (e) of Article 6(1) of Directive 94/62/EC, the weight of recovered or recycled packaging waste shall be measured using a natural humidity rate of the packaging waste comparable to the humidity rate of equivalent packaging put on the market.]
Corrections shall be made to measured data relating to the weight of recovered or recycled packaging waste, if the humidity rate of that packaging waste regularly and significantly differs from that of packaging placed on the market and if this factor risks leading to substantial over- or underestimates of packaging recovery or recycling rates.
Those corrections shall be limited to exceptional cases, caused by specific climatic or other conditions.
[F1Significant corrections shall be reported in the descriptions regarding the data compilation in the data quality check report.]

Corrections shall be made to the data relating to the weight of recovered or recycled packaging waste, if non-packaging materials in the waste sent to an effective recovery or recycling process risk leading to substantial over- or underestimates of packaging recovery or recycling rates.
No corrections shall be made in the case of small amounts of non-packaging materials, or for such contamination as can regularly be found in packaging waste.
