Environmental concerns - tax - carbon tax.

(SLfT).

Scottish Landfill Tax applies to all waste disposed of by way of landfill at a licensed landfill site in Scotland, unless the waste is specifically exempt.

It is similar to Landfill Tax in England and Northern Ireland.


It is charged by weight.

Inert waste is charged at a substantially lower rate than general waste, thereby providing incentives to ensure that waste is appropriately sorted and uncontaminated.
