These Regulations amend the Special Waste Regulations 1996 and provide a definition for special waste that aligns itself with the term hazardous waste.

It also introduces some ‘new’ special wastes following the revision of the EWC list. Another significant difference is that not all prescription medicines will be special waste in Scotland (as they were previously).

Aside from the above the 2004 amendments make very few changes to the existing regulatory regime [1]
