Just rung the Environment Agency to be told that if someone produces clinical waste in their own home it is classed as domestic waste, which of course is dealt with by your local council, if say a district nurse attends your home & produces any clinical waste they have to take it with them & dispose of it accordingly, places like dentists, doctors, hospitals, have to have permits to dispose of clinical waste (but we know that anyway) so it looks like a phone call to HBC to ask them just what law has changed, an 'official law' or a HBC made up law.
