These Regulations amend Chapter 1 of Part 1 of the Waste and Emissions Trading Act 2003 (c. 33) (“the 2003 Act”) as regards the Secretary of State's functions in England and revoke the Landfill Allowances and Trading Scheme (England) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 2004/3212). This brings the landfill allowances trading scheme to an end in England. Regulations 3, 7 and 8 provide for these amendments with revocations and savings provisions in respect of the period for reconciling landfill allowances in relation to the 2012/13 scheme year.
