The Waste (Wales) (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2020

These Regulations amend certain Welsh primary and secondary legislation by bringing up to date references in the legislation to two EU Directives that have been amended as part of the European “Circular Economy Package” (“CEP”), so as to refer to the latest versions of those Directives. The CEP consists of the amendment of a number of EU Directives for the purpose of moving towards a more resource efficient, circular economy. There are additional amendments to the Hazardous Waste (Wales) Regulations 2005 (S.I. 2005/1806 (W. 138)), implementing other EU obligations arising from the Circular Economy Package.
