The Waste (Miscellaneous Amendments) (Northern Ireland) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019

This instrument makes minor operational and technical amendments to subordinate legislation under section 8 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018. It mirrors provisions in Defra’s Waste (Miscellaneous Amendments) (EU Exit) (No.2) Regulations 2019. It amends domestic waste Regulations that implement certain European Directives related to waste management to ensure that the waste regime continues to be operable after the withdrawal of the UK from the EU. The European Directives which these domestic waste Regulations implemented are: • Directive 91/689/EEC on hazardous waste; • Directive 94/62/EC on packaging and packaging waste as amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 1882/2003, Directive 2004/12/EC and Directive 2005/20/EC; and • Directive 2008/98/EC on waste.
