I propose to take Questions Nos. 192 and 193 together.
My Department has a waste recycling programme in place for the recycling of paper, cardboard, used electrical and electronic equipment, toner cartridges, glass and plastic. The total weight in waste recycled by my Department is set out in the table below.
2005 | 2006 | 2007 to date |
18,197 kg | 18,133 kg | 13,779 kg |
No records are available for general waste which was disposed of during the years in question.
