Speaking in the House of Lords on 3 February 2025

Debate

Separation of Waste (England) Regulations 2025

Contribution

I am also conscious that in terms of these regulations, doing a TEEP exercise may seem quite straightforward to people, but actually it takes time, resource and money and is open to legal challenge. That is why I am concerned that we will see councils around the country which had originally thought there were going to be three bins. A couple of months ago, it increased to four. That adds complication to thinking about how you do your bin collection. One thing politicians know is that if you get bins wrong, you are really in trouble with your constituents.
