Disused Mine and Quarry Tips (Wales) Act 2025

Section 16 – Full assessment of unregistered tip

64.Subsection (1) places a duty on the Authority to carry out a full assessment of an unregistered disused tip if, based on a preliminary assessment under either section 13 or 14, it appears to the Authority that the criteria for the registration of the tip may be met. The Authority is required to produce and publish a report of the assessment.

65.Subsection (2) enables the Authority to publish a report in a redacted form if the Authority considers it necessary to do so in order to avoid disclosing information contrary to any prohibition imposed by an enactment or rule of law. Redaction could, for example, entail removing personal data such as name, address or contact details.
