Responsibility for regulating the disposal of industrial, commercial and domestic waste in Scotland rests with the district and islands councils. Around 93 per cent. of such wastes are landfilled with the remainder being incinerated, recycled or transported to specialist facilities in England and Wales. The most recent report of the hazardous waste inspectorate, Scotland, a copy of which is lodged in the Library, describes waste disposal arrangements in Scotland in more detail.
