Question Asked

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what metrics for success her Department has set for the framework for consistency in household waste collections, launched by WRAP in September 2016.

Asked by:
Kerry McCarthy (Labour)

Answer

Defra has not set specific metrics for this industry-led voluntary initiative to improve the quantity and quality of household recycling. The Waste and Resources Action Programme and other members of the industry advisory group for consistency have set out a number of actions and objectives to achieve the vision set out in the Framework and Defra officials will work with them to monitor progress against these actions.
