Waste Update Report
Decision Maker: Policy & Resources Committee (pre 2015)
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
BHCC and ESCC have been invited by Defra to
take part in the Waste Operational Savings Programme (WOSP), a
programme where Defra provides support and resources to assist
local authorities to drive out efficiency savings in waste PFI
contracts. In return for its support, Defra expects a share of the
savings in the form of a reduction of the WIG. The benefits of this
approach are that the Councils can access technical and commercial
expertise that we do not have and the savings remain within the
public sector.
This report seeks approval to engage with the programme
Decisions:
169.1 The Committee agreed the recommendations set out in the Part 2 report.
