Pollution Prevention and Control (Scotland) Amendment Regulations 2003 (S.S.I. No. 146 of 2003).

The majority of the amendments to those Regulations are clarificatory. The opportunity has also been taken to amend typographical errors in the Principal Regulations. Some substantial changes to the Principal Regulations are: regulation 6, among other things, adds a requirement to regulation 9 of the Principal Regulations that no conditions are to be included in a permit for the purpose only of securing the health of persons at work; regulation 11 enables Scottish Ministers to give directions to SEPA to remove information from the public register maintained under regulation 27 of the Principal Regulations any information which is not prescribed for inclusion by paragraph 1 of Schedule 9 or which ought to have been excluded from the register by virtue of regulation 29 of the Principal Regulations; regulation 12 enables SEPA to remove information from the register maintained under regulation 28 of the Principal Regulations where the Scottish Ministers are of the opinion that the information relates to national security.
