Composting Tea Bags
In article oprrc8yshiwxhha1@localhost, Tim writes: | | and : | Q4. Do I need a License to compost at home? | | No. Householders are excluded from the requirement to have a waste | management license for a composting site. This requirement only applies to | "establishments and undertakings". The amended Animal By-products Order | will also exempt domestic households from the need to be licensed by the | State Veterinary Service to compost catering/kitchen waste. In a word, "crap". The 1999 order makes composting of any animal products illegal - the correct answer to the question is "yes". The correct question to which the answer is "no" is "Will I need ...". | http://www.defra.gov.uk/environment/...cs/kitchen.htm It isn't a major point, but this document attempts to hide the fact that the Animal Byproducts Order 1999 was a balls-up. | I can find no hints at all that this might be true. I can conceivably see | the reg. being applied to commercial composting companies. Look at the actual Statutory Instrument - I found it quickly using Google. From 1999 onwards, the situation was as I described. Regards, Nick Maclaren. |
