Protection of the Environment Bill 2003

Public bill · Government · Presented

Updates Ireland’s environmental licensing system to meet EU standards, requiring industries to use the best available techniques, limit emissions, improve energy efficiency, protect groundwater and manage accident risks. It expands EPA powers over pollution and waste, strengthens enforcement and penalties, allows local waste charges, and gives councils wider anti-litter powers, including tighter controls on advertising and higher fines.
