More Cash Will Help Encourage Recycling
April 2, 2007
The Welsh Assembly Government has stumped up million of pounds to encourage recycling and composting.
Environment Minister and Bridgend AM Carwyn Jones announced pounds 35m would be available for Welsh councils – with the potential for more cash.
He said: ‘This is a substantial investment in the way our waste is managed, leading to more recycling and composting and less waste going to landfill.
‘Climate change is one of the biggest challenges we face, and dealing with our waste effectively is one way of tackling it.
‘Today’s announcement will lead to further progress.’
