EU Framework Directive on Waste

The Waste (England and Wales) Regulations 2011 implement the revised Waste Framework Directive. The Waste Management Plan for England sets out the Governments ambition for moving to a more sustainable and efficient approach to resource use and management. National Planning Policy for waste (NPPW) sets out detailed waste planning policies. It should be read in conjunction with the NPPF and the National Policy Statements for Waste Water and Hazardous Waste. Waste planning has a role to play in delivering objectives, including: reducing greenhouse gas emissions; better management of resources and protecting the environment; promoting treatment of waste further up the waste hierarchy; waste planning can also contribute to the development of the circular economy and associated sustainable growth.
