(This note is not part of the Order)
The Deposits in the Sea (Exemptions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1995 exempts specified operations from the licensing requirements of Part II of the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985(6). In order to comply with the Hazardous Waste Directive it is necessary to exempt hazardous waste operations covered by Article 3 of the Hazardous Waste Directive from the Deposits in the Sea (Exemptions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1995.
The Statutory Order will amend the Deposits in the Sea (Exemptions) Order (Northern Ireland) 1995 by restricting the prescribed operations to ensure that they do not involve the recovery or disposal of hazardous waste as defined by regulations 2(1) and 6 of the Hazardous Waste Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2005.
