SHROPSHIRE WASTE MANAGEMENT

That this House notes that in discussions with the hon. Member for Shrewsbury, the Chief Executive of Veolia Environmental Services, Monsieur Jean-Dominique Mallet has stated that an incinerator is not the only option available for Shrewsbury for management of Shropshire's waste; further notes that Veolia has a wide range of alternatives which it would be happy to discuss with the new unitary authority; further notes huge opposition to an incinerator by Shrewsbury residents who would prefer a more modern and greener way to dispose of waste; and congratulates the people of Shrewsbury for exceeding Government targets on recycling.
