Exclusion of public and press Minutes: In accordance with Paragraph 11 of the Access to Information Rules in Part 4 of the Council’s Constitution, the Chief Executive determined that the report submitted under item 5 of the agenda was “Not for Publication” because it contained “exempt information”, as defined in Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972. Cabinet agreed that the public and press be excluded from the meeting whilst the item was considered, on the grounds that their presence would involve the disclosure of exempt information as defined in category 3 (Information relating to the financial or business affairs of any particular person, including the authority holding that information) of Part 1 of Schedule 12(a) of the Local Government Act, 1972, as amended by the Local Government (Access to Information) Variation Order 2006 and that the public interest in maintaining the exemption outweighs the public interest in disclosing the information. |

Waste and Recycling Collection Services beyond March 2020 Report of the Street Scene, Parks and Open Spaces Portfolio Holder and Service Director People and Places
Minutes: The Street Scene, Parks and Open Spaces Portfolio Holder and Service Director People and Places submitted a report asking Cabinet to consider the options for delivering the waste and recycling collection service beyond March 2020 and to identify the most appropriate collection system. As the report was exempt from publication, financial information has been omitted from these minutes.
Decision taken
Cabinet agreed to
· accept the proposal submitted by Veolia in principle and to extend services with them for a second term of eight years, whilst reserving the right to negotiate terms. Authority for negotiations was delegated to the Service Director for People and Places and to the Senior Solicitor to draft any variations to the contract, both for the extension period and any that may be introduced earlier under the current contract.
· change the collection system and frequency for recyclable waste, to replace the green boxes for the glass bottles/jars, tin cans and plastic bottles with a wheeled bin and for this stream and the paper/cardboard stream to be collected on a four-weekly frequency and to establish a budget for promoting the change.
· one-off capital investments, expected to occur in 2019/20, to fund the changes and to fund the purchase of new refuse collection vehicles. |
