32.This section enables the Welsh Ministers to make regulations about assessing, monitoring and auditing compliance in relation to targets for recycling, preparation for re-use and composting under section 3 or other waste targets under section 4. Regulations may make provision—
for the method of assessing compliance with targets;
about arrangements for monitoring and auditing compliance;
conferring powers of entry and inspection for those persons monitoring and auditing compliance;
requiring local authorities to keep records and provide information;
about the publication of information in relation to targets; and
imposing liability on a local authority to pay a penalty if it fails to comply with any requirement of regulations made under this section.
33.Regulations under this section which impose liability to pay a penalty are subject to an affirmative resolution procedure in the National Assembly for Wales (see section 20(3)). All other regulations under this section are subject to a negative procedure (see section 20(1), (2) and (3)).
