Representation ID: 882

Received: 26/09/2023

Respondent: Shlomo Dowen

Legally compliant? No

Sound? No

Duty to co-operate? No

Representation Summary:

As set out in our comments on Paragraph 2.3, the draft Plan fails to reflect relevant guidance and legislation that sets out waste policy at the national level, in particular with respect to the legally binding commitment to halve residual waste by 2042, which came into force on 30 January 2023 under the Environmental Targets (Residual Waste) (England) Regulations 2023 and the 65% recycling target established by the Waste (Circular Economy) (Amendment) Regulations 2020.

Note: Only Solutions LLP is challenging the soundness and legal compliance relating to this consultation point. We have no position on the duty to co-operate.

Change suggested by respondent:

Update the Plan to reflect meeting relevant legislation and associated Government plans, including the legally binding Environmental Targets (Residual Waste) (England) Regulations 2023, and the interim targets set out in the Environmental Improvement Plan (2023), and the 65% recycling target enshrined in the Waste (Circular Economy) (Amendment) Regulations 2020.
