Political Will and Strategies for Achieving Waste Management Targets in East Sussex

In this presentation by Cllr. Matthew Lock, Lead Member for Transport and Environment at East Sussex County Council, the focus is on assessing the political will necessary to meet waste management targets. It covers the historical context, decision-making processes, and the roles of local authorities, including Brighton & Hove City Council and various committees. We discuss the challenges of landfill saturation, the need for sustainable waste solutions, community participation, and education on waste minimization. Collaboration among councils, Veolia, and the public is crucial for success.
