(2)When specifying the waste management measures to be taken in terms of subsection (1), the Minister or MEC, as the case may be, must consider, and to the extent possible, align the measures to be taken with the measures that are set out in any other approved industry waste management plan and that is related to the activities of the person whose plan has been rejected more than once or who failed to submit a plan.
