This policy is predicated on the EU waste hierarchy and encompasses a range of measures across all five tiers namely, prevention and minimisation, reuse, recycling, recovery and disposal. It sets out how the higher tiers can reduce our reliance on finite resources, virtually eliminate our reliance on landfill and minimise the impact on our environment. The policy recognises the importance of waste as an energy resource opportunity in terms of recovery, and the need to develop efficient ways to harness that resource.
