Section six. Complementary information
six.3) Additional information
The 12 month modification will enable the Council to be able to put out a corporate contract/strategy that will meet the needs of all the services who use it.
The release of the Governments Resource & Waste Strategy which legislation is laid down under the Environment Act includes a proposal to standardise the range of materials which are collected from domestic and commercial properties/businesses throughout the UK. The range of materials to be included within this standardised list has been proposed but its implementation date together with the determination of how these materials are collected is subject to a consultation process.
Within the Environment Act there will be a requirement for businesses to separate out waste in the recent summary of changes the Environment Act the government says 'Recycling rates in businesses are often lower than households - it frequently costs businesses more to separate packaging or food waste for recycling. We will take action, including, where necessary legislating, to ensure that businesses present recycling and food waste separately from residual waste for collection and publish or make available information on what is recycled.'
Potentially the Council could be mandated to collect food separately in each of its buildings and cafes.
Because of the current uncertainty around the above it is proposed to extend the contract with Biffa Waste Services Ltd and Associated Waste Management Ltd for one year to allow the Council to develop a strategy in response to the legislation becoming more clearly defined by the government to a point where the eventual re-procurement can be undertaken.
