Defra is consulting on the introduction of civil penalties in England, Scotland and the marine areas. These measures are being considered to address concerns about whether the current penalty system provides sufficient deterrence against non-compliance.
This is a public consultation and it is open to anyone with an interest to provide comments. It should be of particular interest to those operating in the sectors of refrigeration, air-conditioning, insulation foams, electrical switchgear equipment, aerosol sprays, medical inhalers, solvents and fire extinguishers. It may also be of interest to environmental groups.
