Decision - Recycling Incentives and Engagement Campaign

This report sets out proposals for an incentive and engagement campaign to increase recycling rates.

1.                  That the Committee agrees to establish a community incentive scheme to encourage residents to recycle more.  The scheme would be self funded from savings to the waste disposal budget through increased recycling.

2.                  That Committee agrees to an engagement campaign to encourage people to recycle more.  The campaign would run for a period of 12 months and be funded from existing budgets and a projected under-spend from the DCLG communal recycling grant funding.
