§ Mr. HunterTo ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (1) how many waste disposal incinerators in the UK have planning permission but are not yet operating; and where they are sited; [73485]
(2) how many planning applications for waste disposal incinerators are awaiting determination by planning authorities in the United Kingdom; and where they are sited. [73486]
§ Mr. McNultyI have been asked to reply.
Information about individual planning applications in England is not reported to the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister or held centrally, and could only be provided at disproportionate cost. The position in other parts of the UK is a matter for the devolved administrations.
