Disposal of anatomical specimens

Disposal of relevant material is one of the statutory activities within the remit of the Human Tissue Authority (HTA). However, the Human Tissue Act 2004 (HT Act) does not mandate any particular method of disposal according to the type or size of the relevant material. Further, it does not specify how to dispose of imported relevant material.
