Is it possible and I am allowed to attach my d/w waste pipe to my external toilet and hand basin waste pipe?
 
Dishwasher needs AFAIK a 40mm waste, handbasin is usually 32mm. You may have a problem with it draining properly if you connect it to the basin waste. Where does the basin waste go to?
 
Thank you for your response. The pipe I am looking at entering is the wide foul pipe running on the outside the wall from the up stairs toilet directly above the kitchen. I would need to drill into the foul pipe though, that is my concern?
 
surely your dishwasher isn't far from a kitchen sink?

why not joint to the sink waste?
 
As said its referred to as a 'Stack'. If its plastic, then not to difficult to do with right tools, if its cast iron, forget it!
 
The washing machine is next to the kitchen sink unfortunately. I am wanting to put the dishwasher where my under counter fridge is which is 4 units away. I'm pretty sure i can get cold water pipe there it's just the waste with the required angle that would be a problem. The 'stack' is plastic yes and directly at the other side of the external wall which the dishwasher would back up to.
 
you can extend the pipe between the dishwasher waste and the sink waste

IMO this would be much simpler than putting a boss on the soil pipe, and a neater job

post some pics of the waste pipes under the sink if you can, and the soil pipe preferably showing what connections go into it
