These Regulations amend the Landfill Tax Regulations 1996 to provide a number of changes to the scheme whereby landfill site operators are entitled to credit based on the contributions they give to approved bodies with objects concerned with the environment. Regulation 3 provides for amendments to regulation 31 which determines when a landfill site operator can claim tax credits and how he should calculate his entitlement to credit. The amendment reduces the maximum credit a landfill site operator may claim against their annual landfill tax liability.

These Regulations, which apply to England, are made pursuant to section 98 of the Environment Act 1995, and provide for a grant to be made to any person who enters into an agreement with the Secretary of State requiring him to carry out activities which are conducive to a specified purpose on land in which he has an interest. The specified purposes are the conservation of the natural beauty or amenity of the countryside and the promotion of the enjoyment of the countryside by the public. Four pilot areas have been designated to reflect different uses of agricultural land in England.
