The Waste Controls (England and Wales) Regulations 2009
29 October 2009



These regulations are expected to come into force shortly and will replace several pieces of existing legislation (such as the Duty of Care system and Waste Carrier Registration process) with one consolidated regulation. The new regulations will simplify the existing waste regulations and make them more effective; require waste brokers and dealers to register with the Environment Agency (EA); set out requirements for transfer notes and control the seizure of vehicles by regulatory authorities.

It is expected that the waste carriers and brokers registration regime will be included within the system of environmental permits from December 2010.
