HC Deb 04 March 2003 vol 400 c892W
Sandra Gidley

To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs what investigations she has carried out into the amount of household domestic waste which has been separated for recycling by the householder but has ended up in landfill(a) by Project Integra and (b) in England. [100033]

Mr. Meacher

[holding answer 28 February 2003]: We do not collect this information. Under the best value performance indicators the information collected is household waste sent for recycling; this would not distinguish any amount subsequently sent to landfill because it was not recycled.
