We want to know what you think about our plans to update the UK plan for shipments of waste. The plan prohibits shipments of waste for disposal to and from the UK and also explains some exceptions to this rule.

We want to create new exceptions to this rule for two different types of waste and remove one exception for another type of waste. We also want to explain more clearly how you can meet another of the exceptions.
