Purpose

To update Scrutiny on the outcome of the waste
and recycling modelling work undertaken by WRAP Cymru with the
purpose of maximising recycling performance.

Content

RESOLVED:

 

(a)      That  Scrutiny notes the outcomes of the modelling work
undertaken on restricting the capacity of residual waste
collections.
 

(b)      That Scrutiny does not
support a transition to the most effective service delivery
model of retaining a comprehensive weekly
recycling collection service and reducing residual waste
collections to once every four weeks while retaining the 180L black
wheeled bin to realise maximum recycling performance increase,
greenhouse gas emission reduction and cost reduction.
