To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if he will place in the Library the data from WasteDataFlow showing (a) the final destination of materials sent for recycling, (b) tonnage sent for recycling and (c) quantity sent for recycling but rejected/disposed of by each local authority in England in the last period for which figures are available. (143461)

I am arranging for information to be placed in the House Library showing (a) the reported destination of municipal waste sent for recycling, (b) the tonnage of municipal waste sent for recycling and (c) the amount reported as being rejected, by each local authority in England. All data relate to municipal waste and are as reported by local authorities to WasteDataFlow for the 2005-06 financial year.
