HC Deb 04 March 1985 vol 74 cc346-7W
Mr. Corbyn

asked the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will list those authorities that have placed their refuse services out to private contractors; how many staff were employed at the date of privatisation; and what information he has as to the number subsequently employed by the contractor.

Mr. Waldegrave

My Department does not collect systematic information on this subject but a list which includes known contracts for refuse services appears in the magazineContract Services.
