These Regulations are made in exercise of the powers in section 8 of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018 (c.16) in order to make amendments to subordinate legislation to the waste regime. They address failures of retained EU law to allow effective operation and other deficiencies arising from the withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union.
