Joint Municipal Waste Management Strategies (Disapplication of Duties) (England) Regulations 2004 (S.I. 3242 of 2004).

These Regulations, which apply to England, disapply the duties imposed by section 32(1) to (7) of the Waste and Emissions Trading Act 2003, requiring the waste disposal and collection authorities of areas where the waste disposal authority is not also a waste collection authority to have a joint municipal waste management strategy, from several categories of waste authorities which comply with specified conditions. Regulation 2 sets out these categories. Regulation 3 provides for the duration of the various disapplications. Regulation 4 modifies the application of section 32(1) to (7) of the Waste and Emissions Trading Act 2003 so as to restrict the duties in respect of a joint municipal waste management strategy to those waste authorities which do not qualify for a disapplication under regulation 2.
