Recommendation 6:<br />
ODPM should revise<br />
the building<br />
regulations to require<br />
the allocation of space<br />
in housing<br />
developments for<br />
accessible recycling<br />
facilities.<br />
Benefits: removes<br />
problem of storage space<br />
which is a major<br />
hindrance to recycling.<br />
