These Regulations make provision for the administration and assurance of landfill tax. In particular: Part I provides for the Regulations to come into force on 1st August 1996, defines expressions used in them and provides for certain decisions of the Commissioners to be made in writing. Part II regulates the registration of persons who intend to make taxable disposals. It provides for changes to the register and the removal from the register of persons who cease to intend to make taxable disposals.

A tax, to be known as landfill tax, shall be charged in accordance with this Part. The tax shall be under the care and management of the Commissioners of Customs and Excise. Tax shall be charged on a taxable disposal. A disposal is a taxable disposal if: (a) it is a disposal of material as waste; (b) it is made by way of landfill; and (c) it is made at a landfill site as defined in section 66. A disposal is made at a landfill site if the land on or under which it is made constitutes or falls within land, which is a landfill site at the time of the disposal.

These Regulations amend the Landfill Tax Regulations 1996 to provide that the temporary holding of material pending its use for site restoration purposes at the landfill site at which the disposal was made, or pending it being sorted, is not a taxable disposal. Regulation 3 corrects a drafting error made by the Landfill Tax (Amendment) Regulations 1999 (SI 1999/3270). Regulation 4 amends the definition of "qualifying use" in regulation 38 to include the use of material for site restoration purposes and the sorting of material.

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 upon the contributions they give to approved bodies with objects concerned with the environment. Regulation 4 provides for amendments to regulation 31 "Entitlement to credit", which determines when a landfill site operator can claim tax credits and how he should calculate his entitlement to credit.

The Order amends Finance Act 1996 in order to provide for an additional exemption from the new landfill tax, which Part III of that Act introduces. The exemption is in respect of disposals of waste material that has resulted from certain land reclamations. Article 3 provides for the insertion in the Act of new sections 43A and 43B. The first of these provides an exemption from landfill tax for disposals of waste arising from land for which a certificate, issued by the Commissioners of Customs and Excise under section 43B, is in force. Certain other conditions must be fulfilled.
