Abstract

This Regulation partly amends Chapter 15 of the Waste Act (previously omitted), whereby the following articles have been added to the once repealed Chapter: (Purpose) to ensure that waste fee for statutory management of household waste is determined in accordance with article 34, section 1 of Pollution Control Act; (Scope) this section does not apply to municipal waste management on the sale of waste services; (Chapter 15.6) the Municipal Council chief executive, general manager of municipal enterprises, and the control and municipal audit shall follow the applicable rules on inspection of the municipality's activities, in accordance to Municipality Act’s articles 20 (No. 2), art. 23 (No. 2) art 71 (No. 2) and Chapter 12.
