The Waste Management (End-of-Life Vehicles) Regulations 2006 provide the regulatory framework for the implementation in Ireland of Directive 2000/53/EC on end-of-life vehicles.

Under the Regulations, any facility which meets the required standards and holds a valid waste permit may become an authorised treatment facility. Local authorities are the designated competent authorities under the statutory waste permitting regime — my Department has no function in this matter. Donegal County Council will be able to provide details of the authorised treatment facilities operating within its functional areas.
