Update to the UK national implementation plan for the Stockholm Convention on persistent organic pollutants

Summary

This consultation was carried out by the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs together with the Devolved Administrations for Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Views were sought on the (draft) updated UK National Implementation Plan (NIP) for the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs).

The updated NIP outlines progress to date and proposes new actions to improve on the previous (2007) NIP and to implement the Convention’s requirements for the 9 recently added POPs.
