Westminster City Council have confirmed that the prosecution was made under Environmental Protection Act S 34 – Duty of care etc. as respects waste. This imposes a number of duties on anyone who imports, produces, carries, keeps, treats or disposes of controlled waste including preventing the escape of the waste from his control.
