The anatomical waste, which is made up of human body parts and surgical waste, has now been placed in fridges, and HES is attempting to export 750 tons of pharmaceutical waste to the Netherlands.<\/p>\n<p>According to the report, the U.K. governments <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/environment-agency\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Environment Agency<\/a> served 13 warning notices and two \u201ccompliance notices\u201d on HES for not disposing of waste within the desired timeframe.<\/p>\n<p>The leaked documents say that affected NHS trusts have been told to stop paying HES for contracts in which the stockpiling constitutes a breach of environmental laws. The documents add that if HES goes out of business, it would \u201csignificantly impact the management of waste within both hospital and primary care services across England.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In a statement to the Health Service Journal, HES said it has \u201chighlighted the reduction in the UKs high-temperature incineration capacity for the last few years. This is down to the aging infrastructure, prolonged breakdowns and the reliance on zero waste to landfill policies, taking up the limited high-temperature incineration capacity in the market.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><em>Read this next: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/\u201chttps:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/olympic-hacking-scheme-russia-united-states-indicts-7\/\u201d\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">US indicts 7 Russians for Olympic hacking scheme<\/a><\/em><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.eu\/article\/tons-of-human-body-parts-stockpiled-by-nhs-waste-firm\/?utm_source=RSS_Feed&amp;utm_medium=RSS&amp;utm_campaign=RSS_Syndication\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Original Article<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[contf]<br \/>\n[contfnew]<br \/>\n        <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com\/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRMd3Tz2gX9xSa6CJyaOj2dokBVcrdaT4yY3R3RI7YmL18vCLZZ\"\/><\/p>\n<h5><a href=\"http:\/\/www.politico.com\/&gt;Politico&lt;\/a&gt;&lt;\/h5&gt;_&lt;\/p&gt;[contfnewc]_[contfnewc]_&lt;\/body&gt;&lt;\/html&gt;\" rel=\"noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"><\/a><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A disposal company working for the U.K.s National Health Service stockpiled hundreds of tons of huma..<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":93683,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[48],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-93682","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-health"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
