Summary of Decision

 

The Cabinet Member for City Management and Air Quality has approved the award of theTreatment of Dry Recyclables to Veolia ES (UK) Ltd for three years; from 1st April 2024 to 31st March 2027.

 

Reasons for Decision

 

The award of both contracts will enable the City Council to secure its future waste treatment needs at economically advantageous gate fees and comply with its legal duty to arrange for the treatment and disposal of waste. Due to the implementation of new national policy and legislation, the city council expects to recycle more of the waste it manages.

 

It will also allow for the continued direct delivery of residual waste to SELCHP and dry recyclables to the Southwark MRF which in turn ensures high levels of efficiency on the Contract for Waste and Recycling Collection, Street Cleansing and Ancillary Services
