Landfill
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, if he will take steps to require landfill operators to publish regular information on the (a) types and (b) quantities of waste deposited at each of their sites.
Answered by Mary Creagh
The waste data for landfills in England is publicly available through the Environment Agency. Operators must report waste types and quantities, which are part of a public register accessible via the Environment Agency and published annually on GOV.UK: How to access waste management data for England - GOV.UK
The most recent data can be found online through the 2023 Waste Data Interrogator - data.gov.uk webpage.
