Dept for Environment Food and Rural Affairs

Question: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment she has made of the impact of Government building targets in the South East on her policy for waste disposal. (Failed OPQ)

Answer: Bob Spink: To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what assessment she has made of the impact of Government building targets in the south-east on her policy for waste disposal. [207862] Mr. Morley: The Government's policy for sustainable waste management aims to break the link between economic growth and environmental degradation and resource use--in particular by pushing waste management up the waste hierarchy. The Government's housing targets for the south-east will have no direct impact on that policy.
