Recommendation Benefits/Risks Action to By when Lead dept/ Others Measuring be taken organisation involved progress Chapter 7 – Strategic investment measures Recommendation 21: DEFRA and DTI should take forward a programme of development of new technologies or approaches, including pilots. Benefits: broaden options for managing waste; kick-starts investment prior to landfill tax reaching £35. Reduces risk to government of not meeting Landfill Directive. Provides LAs with a lowrisk way to try innovative options. Risks: money not well targeted – DEFRA to form technology board to provide advice on options to assess pilot schemes. Until landfill tax increases significantly, there is no incentive for new technologies in the waste area. LAs need to use proven technologies and are reluctant to take risks. Grants will pump prime the development of options and reduce the risk for waste companies and LAs who can fund in partnership with government. Start now, provide grants to help. DEFRA/DTI Waste industry/ CBI/Carbon Trust/EA A greater range of effective options for managing waste and the provision of alternatives to landfill and incineration e.g. MBT. SUMMARY OF KEY RECOMMENDATIONS AND ACTION PLAN 131
WASTE NOT, WANT NOT Recommendation Benefits/Risks Action to By when Lead dept/ Others Measuring be taken organisation involved progress Chapter 8 – Funding and Delivery Recommendation 22: The Challenge Fund should be retained with consideration given to opening up bids from the private sector, either independently or in partnership with LAs to tackle municipal waste. Benefits: Challenge Fund ensures resources for waste are available and more focused. Ensure Challenge Fund is spent effectively. Consider option of opening this up to private sector. Now DEFRA Quality of Challenge Fund bids improves. Funds channelled swiftly and accurately. Improved partnership working if combined bids accepted. Recommendation 23: DEFRA should accelerate the programme of work to improve delivery of PFI waste projects. Benefits: ensure PFI is used flexibly and has maximum impact. DEFRA has made considerable progress in this area. Now DEFRA HMT PFI used for a wide range of projects and to improve the flow of PFI targets. Recommendation 24: The LTCS should be reformed with 2/3rds of current funds transferred into a public expenditure scheme to fund priority areas for investment in waste management. 1/3rd of funds to remain under the current scheme. Benefits: ensure this fund is better focused on strategic waste management. Risks: some good work is lost so 1/3rd of existing scheme is retained for valuable projects. Whilst the LTCS has made progress, there is insufficient transparency and ability to measure progress of projects. The fund is also not open to local authorities directly. Now HMT Funds directed at strategic waste management projects with clear benefits and measurable outcomes. 132
