Commentary
These Regulations are proposed to be made by the UK Government pursuant to section 8(1) of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018.
This instrument amends 12 domestic waste regulations, which implement different European directives related to waste management to ensure that the waste regime can continue to operate effectively after the UK leaves the EU. No environmental standards are removed or amended. The modifications are necessary to the text of the domestic legislation, removing or amending references to EU directives and associated EU terms, to ensure that waste legislation continues to operate as intended after EU exit by ensuring that existing protections and regulatory frameworks are maintained and continue to work in the same way once the UK has left the EU.
Legal Advisers agree with the statement laid by the Welsh Government dated 19 December 2018 regarding the effect of these Regulations.
Legal Advisers do not consider that any significant issues arise under paragraph 8 of the Memorandum on the European Union (Withdrawal) Bill and the Establishment of Common Frameworks in relation to these Regulations.
Legal Advisers have not identified any legal reason to seek a consent motion under Standing Order 30A.10 in relation to these Regulations.
