Question to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs:
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, how many exports categorised as (a) B1250 and (b) 16 01, under Regulation (EC) No 1013/2006, have been investigated by UK Border Force in each year since 2010.
None.
The four environment agencies are the competent authorities of destination and dispatch under the Transfrontier Shipment of Waste Regulations 2007.
Neither the Environment Agency nor the Northern Ireland Environment Agency has undertaken any recent investigations. Natural Resources Wales and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency have investigated exports of end-of-life vehicles, as set out below. A number of these investigations are ongoing.
