From the Back Cover
Environmental health law is a wide ranging, detailed and complex body of law within the UK. Environmental Health Procedures is an essential reference source which provides an accessible entry into enforcement procedures for environmental health. The main legal procedures used in the environmental health field are presented as flow charts supported by explanatory text. It is unique in this purpose and this new edition comes at a time of extensive legislative change.
All chapters are updated to reflect new legislation and statutory guidance including:
- Food Safety – details of the new procedures now in place following both EC and UK legislation implemented in 2006.
- Housing Standards - new standards and processes for securing acceptable housing following the radical changes brought by the Housing Act 2004.
- Clean Neighbourhoods and Environment Act 2005 – wide ranging changes are included in appropriate chapters dealing with fixed penalty schemes, abandoned cars, litter, waste, statutory nuisances, noise and dog control.
- Licensing Act 2003 – far-reaching changes affecting the sale of alcohol and the provision of entertainment are major new areas of concern for environmental health departments. A new section analyses the many procedures contained in its enforcement.
Environmental Health Officers/Practitioners and students will find this essential reading. It will also be a valuable reference for all those whose responsibilities demand they keep abreast of current environmental health practices.
