EXPLANATORY NOTE

(This note is not part of the Regulations)


These Regulations substitute a new Schedule for that in the Environmental Protection (Waste Recycling Payments) (England) Regulations 2004, which make provision for determining the net savings of expenditure payable by waste disposal authorities to waste collection authorities and other persons who collect and retain waste for recycling (regulation 2).

The new Schedule provides figures for determining the net saving of expenditure where this cannot otherwise be determined because sufficient accurate information is not available or could only be obtained at a disproportionate cost. These figures are increased to take account of rises in the Retail Price Index (by 3.5%) and increases in landfill tax (to Ј18 a tonne).

A Regulatory Impact Assessment has not been prepared for this instrument as it has no impact on the costs of the public sector, business, charities or voluntary bodies.
