Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Order)

These Regulations correct minor errors in the List of Wastes (England) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/895) before those regulations come into force. In particular, they add to the list of wastes set out in Schedule 1 to the Regulations, certain wastes which are included in the list set out in the Annex to Commission Decision 2000/532/EC (OJ No. L226, 6.9.2000, p.3) (as amended by Decisions 2001/118/EC, 2001/119/EC and 2001/532/EC) (“the List of Wastes Decision”). A consolidated text of the List of Wastes Decision is available at http://europa.eu.int/eur-lex/en/consleg/pdf/2000/en_2000D0532_do_001.pdf.

A transposition note has been prepared setting out the transposition of the Hazardous Waste Directive (91/689/EEC) and the List of Wastes Decision. A regulatory impact assessment has also been prepared. Copies of both are available in both Houses of Parliament and from the WM Hazardous Waste Unit, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, Zone 7/F15, Ashdown House, 123 Victoria Street, London SW1E 6DE.
