Question

Our FoI request: in getting to know local perspectives on your recycling & waste services, we ask the questions below. We believe you will have easy access to the answers as they are factual numbers or time based, and are fundamental to the workings of your Authority. We have avoided asking questions that would require a disproportionate amount of time from officers to find answers. 1a For all Authorities – Financial question: what are your Authority’s financial expenditure outturns (revenue, not capital) for the years 2023/24 and 2024/25 for your recycling and waste service?

If it is easier for your Authority to answer the questions in a letter rather than filling in boxes, we are happy for you to respond in the way that is most efficient for you. Please respond by email to paul.vanston@incpen.org Lastly, a huge THANK YOU from INCPEN to all Authorities completing this Freedom of Information request within legislative time limits or close to those. The information you provide to INCPEN will be incredibly helpful to us in understanding local perspectives, which can so easily be masked by only focusing on national pictures.
