Waste exemptions

UPDATE:

Following a detailed examination of the new legislation and a long discussion with the EA today, Catherine was able to confirm that, contrary to what I had written below, if you used to have an exemption 27 you no longer need to register. It now falls under one of the non-waste framework exemptions which do not need to be registered. In effect, with these exemptions, it is taken that you have an automatic exemption.

We mentioned the new waste exemptions a few weeks ago. The Environment Agency has a really useful page about it explaining the details, listing the new exemptions and giving a link to register your exemptions.

The new exemptions come into effect on 6th April 2010. From this date you will be able to register by following the link here.

Full information on these changes including guidance can be found here.
