‘Best Available Techniques’– A future regime within the UK

Following the UK’s exit from the European Union, the UK Government the Scottish Government, the Welsh Government, and the Department of Agriculture, Environment and Rural Affairs in Northern Ireland are firmly committed to providing a future regime for the development of 'Best Available Techniques' within the UK. This consultation sets out how we will ensure a collaborative approach to developing 'Best Available Techniques' within the UK, within a framework that provides a clear process for collating and sharing technical views, determining new 'Best Available Techniques' and ensuring that both 'Best Available Techniques' and the 'Best Available Techniques' determination process is evaluated. ‘Best Available Techniques’ means the economically and technically viable techniques which are the best for preventing or minimising emissions and impacts on the environment as a whole. &#
