About

Defra Network eTendering Portal awarded a contract to Acumen Waste Services Limited for a national framework enabling the Environment Agency to meet its statutory obligations regarding illegally exported waste.

The framework covers the return and management in England, within statutory timescales, of waste illegally exported from England, shipments that cannot be completed as planned, and shipments that cannot be completed in accordance with a consignment note or contract.

The Agency's obligations arise once it is informed of an illegal export or an incomplete shipment, typically by a third party such as the competent authority in the destination country.
