Have your say on The Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011

Defra have asked ADBA for feedback on their Waste Regulations 2011 in light of their legal obligation to hold a Post Implementation Review every five years. These are designed to look back at how well objectives of regulations have been met, test if regulations continue to be useful or consider amendments to minimise burdens or improve impacts. The broad aim of the 2011 regulations was to reduce the adverse impacts of the generation of waste and resource use on human health and the environment.

Defra are seeking feedback on the following topics:

• Waste Prevention Programme
• Waste Management Plan
• Waste Hierarchy
• Household Recycling Target
• Construction Waste Recovery
• Waste Infrastructure

If you have any feedback about these areas, please contact joanna.goad@adbioresources.org by  30 May.
