Regulation 2 amends the 1997 Regulations to allow reprocessors and exporters to apply for and the Environment Agency to grant accreditation at any time throughout the year. Paragraph (2) amends regulation 21B. Sub-paragraph (a) removes the requirement for a person to have applied for accreditation as a reprocessor or exporter by 30 September in the year preceding the year in which he is applying to be accredited. Sub-paragraph (b) removes the requirement for the relevant Agency to have notified the applicant of its decision by the 30 November, although the requirement to notify in writing remains. Sub-paragraph (c) is amended so that where accreditation is granted in the preceding year to that to which the application relates, it takes effect from the 1st January and in all other cases, from the date of the decision. Accreditations subsist until the 31st December. Paragraph (3) makes consequential amendments to Schedule 2A.
