  4. Local authority support • Direct 1:1 operational support is available but will be more focused in scope… • We will continue to be a source of good practice information, case studies and benchmark data • Training courses – events for 2011/12 now on the website and will be added to during the year • We will continue to develop 'Recycle Now' & 'Love Food Hate Waste' and develop collateral for reuse campaigns – but our direct funding for local authority campaigns will no longer be able and advisory support will be limited.

  5. 1:1 Advisory support will be available for • LAs going to market to procure new collection service contracts (where any framework arrangements are not suitable) • LAs not going to market, but who are planning major service changes and looking to improve their services e.g. through the addition of new materials for recycling • LAs looking to enter joint working/partnership arrangements to facilitate the harmonisation of services • LAs who market their own dry recyclables to obtain competitively priced contracts with reprocessors/traders

  6. WRAP & iESE joint working • We both provide support to local authorities • We both receive funding from Defra • We both have to be more focused in the future in terms of the amount and type of support we can offer LAs Therefore.. • We need to avoid potential for duplication • We need to ensure programmes are complementary and take account of local government needs • We need to ensure priorities identified by Defra are addressed

  7. Joint working MoU • Recently reached Agreement on an MoU (to be promoted more widely shortly) • This sets out • Key areas for support with specific responsibilities for delivery • Areas where closer collaboration is required • Sets out a basis for • discussing, planning, and reviewing our activities • Annually reviewing the scope of the MoU with Defra
