Waste Disposal

Volume 479: debated on Monday 21 July 2008

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if he will place in the Library a list of the sources for fly-tipping and waste placed out which informed the most recent annual Local Environment Quality Survey of England. (219072)

The 2006-07 Local Environment Quality Survey of England Report can be found on the ENCAMS website. The report does not have information on the proportional sources of fly-tipping and waste placed out. There is general background on the sources of solid waste encountered during the survey which are defined as: General Litter, Domestic Refuse, Commercial Wastes, Animal and Other Faeces, Clinical Wastes, Putrescible Materials, Other Wastes Occurring as Litter.

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if he will place in the Library a copy of the research commissioned by his Department and the Environment Agency from ENCAMS on fly-tipping and waste. (219073)

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs if he will place in the Library a copy of the Low Participation Areas—Effective Communications Planning guidance published by the Waste and Resources Action Programme. (219075)

The guidance referred to is an online tool, rather than a physical, document, and cannot therefore be deposited in the Library of the House. However, it is freely available to use on the website of the Waste and Resources Action Programme.

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs how many civic amenity sites each waste authority in England provides. (219078)

The table provides the numbers of household civic amenity sites the Environment Agency has permitted in England by local authority area.

The caveat is that these figures do not include those civic amenity sites which are incorporated into other types of sites such as waste transfer sites/material recycling facilities operated by local authorities or their contractors. It is not possible to separate these data.
