Reductions in Bin Collections in Stirling

Lodged by Dean Lockhart Standard Motion 24 supporters

The motion

That the Parliament expresses its concerns regarding the changes to waste collection services in the Stirling Council area; understands that the changes, which are to be implemented at the end of September 2021, will introduce a reduction in the collection of non-recyclable waste and some recyclable to once every four weeks; believes that the local authority's waste transformation project was introduced with little consultation with residents and despite a petition against the changes that attracted more than 6,000 signatures; understands that the British Pest Control Association has expressed concern that any reduction in waste collection services risks an increase in pests, and calls on Stirling Council to halt this plan immediately.
