The Transfrontier Shipment of Hazardous Waste Regulations 1988
These Regulations, which apply to England, Wales and Scotland, implement Council Directive No. 84/631/EEC, as amended and adapted to technical progress, on the supervision and control within the European Community of the transfrontier shipment of hazardous waste. Such waste is, with certain exceptions, “special waste” as defined in the Control of Pollution (Special Waste) Regulations 1980. The Regulations provide a system of consignment notes and uniform documents to be used by persons who produce, transport and dispose of consignments of hazardous waste.
