Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
The Minister is putting 25 county managers in charge of collecting and incinerating waste, which will result in 25 different approaches to waste management. As the Department of the Environment and Local Government will not stand for this, the Minister will issue a diktat to the County and City Managers Association giving instructions on how waste is to be collected and informing them that, apart from a limited amount of recycling, it is to be incinerated.
