Mr. Cousins

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment (1) what guidance he gives on the disposal of(a) high-temperature insulating materials such as asbestos, ceramic spray and fibre, and calcium silicate and (b) waste from the manufacturing plants which produce such materials;

(2) what guidance he gives on the disposal of (a) low-temperature insulating materials such as polystyrene, polyurethane and phenolics and (b) waste from the manufacturing plants which produce such materials.

Mr. Trippier

Guidance on the disposal of asbestos is given in "Waste Management Paper 18", and advice on the other materials and the wastes from their manufacture is to be found in a number of other WMPs published by my Department.
