Illustration for Waste Minimisation Act 2008

When you look at the rules about waste management plans, you see some changes to the Local Government Act 2002. The changes are to Clause 3(1)(b) of the Local Government Act 2002, which now mentions a waste minimisation plan in force under section 43 of the Waste Minimisation Act 2008. You will also see changes to Clause 3(2) and Clause 3(3) of the Local Government Act 2002, where "waste management plan" is replaced with "waste management and minimisation plan".
