I think the minister may have misunderstood, because this is relating to the application for a site, not a closure certificate. The fact is that the minister does not have to refuse to give a pre-certificate notice relating to an application for a site even if the minister is satisfied. This is before they actually pump anything in there, not at the point at which they would sign off.
