Our specialist waste and renewable resources sector team, including lawyers and planning consultants, provides a complete range of services for the waste and renewable resources industry.

In this edition, we will look at some of the issues which might affect your business including Defra's Anaerobic Digestion Programme, the Landfill Tax Consultation and the new Environment Agency classification of 'recovered' materials.

We are hosting a Breakfast Seminar on 26 June with Charles Hendry Esq MP, Shadow Minister for Energy as the keynote speaker, and he will be talking about the Energy Challenge we are facing in the UK. Delegate places for our Breakfast Seminar are free so please book your place as soon as possible to avoid disappointment. Please click here for further information about the seminar.

We are also conducting a survey and would like to find out your view on the energy challenge issues. The results of the survey would be announced at the Breakfast Seminar on 26 June.

I hope you find this eBulletin useful and interesting.
