128.Section 2 of the Control of Pollution (Amendment) Act 1989 sets out provisions as to the registration of waste carriers. Section 36 amends the provisions in section 2 relating to certificates of registration for carriers of controlled waste (in relation to which provision can be made in regulations under that section). In particular, it removes the requirement that a certificate of registration, and copies of such a certificate, must be provided free of charge.
129.This section also provides (by way of new section 2(4A) and (4B) of the 1989 Act) that regulations under this section may include provision for the registration of carriers of controlled waste to be subject to conditions relating to the vehicles they use, as well as for the possible revocation of a registration in the event of breach of such a condition. In support of this, the regulations may provide for inspections of such vehicles and charges for such inspections.
