Reports on the overreliance on landfill in England. Recommends that England needs to reduce the amount of biodegradable municipal waste disposed of through landfill. Proposes that earlier delays in taking action have made EU targets more difficult to achieve and warns that without a step change in existing local authority plans, England will not achieve its share of the reductions in landfill the EU requires by 2010 and 2013. Suggests that recycling and minimisation need to contribute more to reducing the amount of biodegradable municipal waste sent to landfill.
