answer text <p>The Forestry Commission has a large number of contractual agreements with private businesses operating on the public forest estate. Forest Holidays is a Joint Venture dating back to 2006 and established under the Regulatory Reform (Forestry) Order 2006. The overarching Framework Agreement, updated in 2012, and lease agreements state conditions that Forest Holidays must comply with to ensure sites are managed in line with Forestry Commission objectives. These are in addition to any planning conditions and other technical protections in place as part of any planning consent issued by the Local Planning Authority.</p> more like this

However, records of disqualification orders made under the Animal Welfare Act 2006 are not routinely held by that department, but are held on the Police National Computer.

answer text <p>The answer to Question 135379 referred to the fact that there is no commercially available equipment for the continuous monitoring of PM10 and PM2.5. The Environment Agency is aware that there have been a limited number of research projects undertaken by academic or research institutes around the world which have attempted to adapt ambient monitoring techniques for PM10 and PM2.5 to stack (chimney) emissions monitoring, but these would have been installed for short periods of time and so do not provide continuous monitoring results. The Environment Agency is not aware of any other examples of non-commercially available equipment for measuring emissions of PM10 and PM2.5.</p> more like this

answer text <p>Local authorities are best placed to determine local waste collection and recycling services in line with legislation and taking into account the services local residents demand. Separate collection of compostable waste is the best way to ensure this material is sent to the most appropriate treatment option and for diverting this waste from landfill, reducing the potential for greenhouse gas emissions.</p><p> </p><p>97% of local authorities in England offer a garden waste collection service, and 50% of local authorities in England offer a dedicated food waste collection service either separately or mixed with garden waste. This waste is typically composted or, in the case of separately collected food waste, sent to anaerobic digestion.</p><p> </p><p>We want to encourage local authorities to follow best practice in the provision of waste collection and recycling services, and have worked with the Waste and Resources Action Programme to provide guidance on separate collection of food waste and on garden waste collection and have committed to working towards no foodwaste entering landfill by 2030.</p>
