Overview: an integrated authorisation framework.
Working with Scottish Government, we are developing a simpler, integrated system for environmental regulation that is easier for businesses and individuals to understand. It will help us to be more efficient and effective in protecting the environment and communities from harm.
The Integrated Authorisation Framework, established by the Environmental Authorisations (Scotland) Regulations 2018 (EASR 2018), is part of Scottish Government and SEPA’s Better Regulation Programme and aims to deliver a risk-based, proportionate system of environmental regulation.
Learn more about the Better Regulation programme, the Environmental Authorisation (Scotland) Regulations 2018 and how we are modernising.
