This Order designates Council Directive 1999/13/EC on the limitation of volatile organic compounds due to the use of organic solvents in certain activities and installations (“the Solvent Emissions Directive”) as a relevant directive for the purposes of paragraph 20(2)(c) of Schedule 1 to the Pollution Prevention and Control Act 1999 (“the Act”).
The purpose of the designation is to enable the powers in the Act to be used to transpose the Solvent Emissions Directive.
Schedule 1 to the Act specifies particular purposes for which provision regulating polluting activities may be made under section 2 of the 1999 Act. Paragraph 20(1)(b) allows for making provision which corresponds to or is similar to any provision made, or capable of being made, under section 2(2) of the European Communities Act 1972 in connection with one of the relevant directives. The relevant directives are Council Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control, Council Directive 75/442/EEC on waste, as amended, and any other directive of the Council of the European Communities designated by the Scottish Ministers for the purposes of that paragraph by order made by statutory instrument.
