In particular, the Court considered the disapplication of the requirement in section 33(1) EPA 1990 for a waste management licence; whether it was unfair to permit the indictment to plead a course of conduct; whether provision of a summary of the prosecution case to witnesses for the Crown had such an effect on proceedings that the verdicts should be treated as unsafe; excessive and improper intervention by the judge; and procedural points in relation to imposition of fines and a restraint order and costs.
