NERF – WRAP update

WRAP update
Update on support available from WRAPWork areas for 2011 iESE and WRAP – joint workingForthcoming information & case studies
WRAP support – some changes
New business plan for 2011 – 2015 will be published in June
New Director – Marcus Gover Integrated, internally, our collections and
sorting teams; now “Collections and Quality” not “Local Government Services”
Will be taking forward our work on business waste, reuse and mixed plastics
New areas include recycling ‘on the go’
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.
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
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
