The Prohibition on the Incineration, or the Deposit in Landfill, of Specified Waste (Wales) Regulations 2023
These Regulations prohibit the incineration, or the deposit in landfill, of specified types of waste. The types of waste are food, small electrical and electronic equipment, card, cartons, and certain textiles. The prohibition is achieved by adding specified types of waste to Schedule 9, Part 4, paragraph 1 (waste separately collected for preparing for re-use and recycling not to be incinerated) and Schedule 10, paragraph 5A (waste separately collected for preparing for re-use and recycling not to be landfilled) to the Environmental Permitting (England and Wales) Regulations 2016 (S.I. 2016/1154). In addition to this, there will be a prohibition on the deposit in landfill of waste wood (whether or not separately collected).
