This seminar focused on the future of waste policy in Wales and the implications for waste management, energy generation and the circular economy.
It came as the Welsh Government updated its waste strategy Towards Zero Waste and seeks to become a zero waste nation by 2050.
The seminar took place during uncertainty over the impact of Brexit on waste regulations, and as Wales prepares to implement its own landfill tax.
Delegates also discussed the impact of legislation such as the Environment (Wales) Act, Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act and Planning (Wales) Act on waste policy.
Further planned sessions focused on managing waste to deliver the target of recycling 70% of waste by 2025, developing the circular economy and progress so far in gaining energy from waste and the potential for further action.
