The F Gas regulations move onwards.
In the UK, DEFRA has begun a 3 month consultation on the first lot of UK Statutory Instruments that define the offences and penalties.
If you handle, or dispose of F gases, or work on any refrigeration or heat pump systems, this will affect you.
In particular, read Part 3 and Schedule 1 of the SI.

The consultation is due to end in August; it will probably be made into law later this year, unless Gordon calls a snap election…….
