That this House believes that every household should have a quality doorstep recycling service by 2010; welcomes the recommendation for a universal service in the Cabinet Office Strategy Unit's report, 'Waste not, want not', further welcomes the all-party support for doorstep recycling, including the Prime Minister's statement in October 2000 that 'I want to see every local authority offering doorstep recycling' and the Conservative and Liberal Democrat manifesto commitments to nationwide doorstep recycling schemes; notes also that the majority of honourable Members have signed Motions supporting such a policy in this Parliament and that the Strategy Unit warn that waste is causing 'significant and growing damage to the environment' and that 'it costs less to act now'; and therefore hopes that doorstep recycling bill can be passed in this session.

That this House believes that every household should have a quality doorstep recycling service by 2010; believes that successful schemes show doorstep recycling is possible and popular in both rural and urban areas with recycling rates of up to 52 per cent. in 1999-2000 far exceeding the United Kingdom average rate of just 11 per cent., one of the lowest rates of recycling in Europe; further notes that such an expansion of recycling would provide tens of thousands of jobs, cut emissions of greenhouse gases, reduce pressure for unpopular and environmentally damaging new landfill sites and incinerators on the need to boost recycling with the Prime Minister saying in October 2000, "I want to see every local authority offering doorstep recycling", and both the Conservative and Liberal Democrat parties promising nationwide doorstep recycling in their manifestos; and hopes this consensus will lead to prompt action to deliver a very popular policy.
