answer text <p>We have brought forward up to £295 million in capital funding to roll out weekly food waste collections across England. This will cover the cost of additional bins and vehicles. Initial grants have now been issued to local authorities for their transitional capital funding allocation for FY 2023/24. We are still calculating resource funding allocations and are therefore unable to share details of funding at this time. We will be in contact with local authorities regarding this funding when we are able to do so.</p> more like this
