Abstract

These Regulations implement in England and Wales the amendments to the public participation provisions in Directive 96/61/EC made by Article 4 of Directive 2003/35/EC providing for public participation in respect of the drawing up of certain plans and programmes relating to the environment and amending with regard to public participation and access to justice Council Directives 85/337/EEC and 96/61/EC. The requirements of Directive 96/61/EC concerning integrated pollution prevention and control have been implemented in England and Wales by means of the Pollution Prevention and Control Regulations. These Regulations amend regulation 2 and the procedures for public participation in Schedules 4 (Grant of Permits) and 7 (Variation of Conditions) to the 2000 Regulations in order to implement the additional public participation requirements in paragraphs 1 to 3, 5 and 6 of article 4 of the Public Participation Directive. These requirements apply to all applications for permits to operate new Part A installations and to variations authorizing substantial changes in the operation of a Part A installation or variations resulting from a review by the regulator of a Part A installation under regulation 15(2)(a) of the 2000 Regulations.
