Scottish environmental legislation

Use the links below to access key environmental legislation that may apply to your business in Scotland.

The links will take you to the legislation on the Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI) website. The version on teh OPSI site will be the legislation as originally passed. It will not incorporate any later amendments, so it may not fully reflect the current legal position.

We provide this list as a guide to key environmental legislation that may apply to your business. We review it periodically but it does not include every piece of legislation that may affect your business. As there may be additional legislation that applies to your particular activities and circumstances, you should check with your environmental regulator, legal advisor or environmental consultant to find out if there are any more legal requirements that apply to you.
