Applications for approval to transform animal by-products (ABP) into biogas or compost must meet the requirements of the EU ABP Regulation (EC) 1069 of 2009.

I understand the applicant in this instance, who has received first stage approval-in-principle, advised my Department some time ago that he was in the process of finalising permits and financing. No correspondence has been received in the meantime. The applicant should contact the relevant officials in my Department if he wishes to further his application.
