To date no direction has been issued under section 60 of the Waste Management Act 1996. However, as previously indicated, it is my intention to issue such a policy direction to assist local authorities and the Environmental Protection Agency in dealing with the consequences of illegal waste activity. My Department is currently formulating such a direction in consultation with the EPA with a view to completing it early in 2005.
