The work programme for the Market Development Programme is outlined in the Market Development Programme for Waste Resources 2007 — 2011 which is available on my Department's website. The programme will run for a period of 5 years and commenced on 1 October 2008. As I have previously indicated, in light of recent developments in the market for recyclates, I have asked that the work programme be reviewed with a view to prioritising elements which can help address these developments. Following this review, a work plan for 2009 will be published in January.
