Minutes:
The Cabinet received a report that proposed that the Council’s current domestic waste and recycling collection service contract be extended.
The Cabinet received a further update to the report submitted, informing it that Veolia Environmental Services (VES) had today (Thursday 26 March 2015) informed the Council that, due to a significant anticipated increase in its processing costs for dry recyclate, it was unable to extend the waste and recycling contract on the basis previously agreed. Officers advised that further negotiation should take place with VES prior to any agreement on a contract extension.
