What is the law regarding changes to rubbish collection?
Under Section 46 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 the Council can state the receptacles and the steps a household waste producer must follow when placing rubbish out for collection. If rubbish is then placed in breach of the policy, this is an offence under the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and a fine of £100 pounds can be charged. However, the Council tries to resolve all these issues through advice and help.
