Will Councillor Purse try to ensure that by the time next year’s Yellow Pages are delivered, all five District Councils in Oxfordshire arrange for the old ones to be put into kerbside recycling boxes? This year only Oxford City Council and South Oxfordshire District Council had this arrangement. ANSWER QUESTION NO. 7 – ANSWER FROM COUNCILLOR ANNE PURSE TO COUNCILLOR BRIAN HODGSON Doorsteps collections are a District Council duty. Waste Management officers at the County Council have good relationships with their District colleagues and there is an agreed way forward for countywide waste matters as set out in the Joint Oxfordshire Waste Strategy. This aims, amongst other things, to maximise recycling opportunities. The Waste Management Project Group has already discussed Yellow Pages for the next year and agreed to a Countywide scheme, so it is hoped that by next year you will be able to dispose of Yellow Pages at both kerbside collections and at the Waste Recycling Centres.
