Purpose & Remit

The expectation is that the Waste Working Group will operate on a task and finish basis and will adopt a forward looking and solutions-orientated approach building consensus wherever possible.  In doing so, the Working Group will focus on overseeing the roll out of the Devon Aligned Service and, in the absence of any formal decision-making powers, will formulate recommendations for the consideration of the Executive.
