Mr. Gavin Sheridan:

It is worth noting that governments around the world are increasing their use of public private partnerships and developing their relationships with companies that are carrying out things that Governments would previously have carried out. That has happened to a large degree in the UK. The approach taken by the UK authorities, as evidenced in certain decisions, is that private limited companies which are involved in waste management or in regulation are subject to access to information rules even though they are essentially for-profit companies.
