The Protection of the Environment Act 2003 updated a number of different legislative codes and its repeal would not be appropriate at this stage. However, the Programme for Government includes significant commitments in relation to environmental legislation. Some of these may be found suitable for implementation through amendment of the above 2003 Act.
