Does Article 28(2) of the EC Waste Shipment Regulation, in conjunction with Article 47 of the Charter, require the adoption of a national legal act by the competent authority of dispatch or the competent authority of destination or the competent authorities of dispatch and destination, in respect of which (in each case) the person affected by the legal consequence has an effective legal remedy enabling that person to challenge that act? |
