  • Reference: 2018/1583
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 21 June 2018

Waste collection in Barnet [1]

  • Reference: 2018/1582
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 21 June 2018
Barnet Council is considering scrapping food waste collections and stopping green waste collections for 3 months a year, breaking the administration's only pledge in their recent election. The London Environmental Strategy (Policy 7.2.1) states a minimum level of service to households: 1) six main dry recycling materials collected from all properties 2) separate food waste collections, including from flats where practical and cost effective 3) focus on improving performance from flats. Do you regard this scheme as being compliant with your environmental policies? If not, will you challenge the Council's decision?

Post Grenfell Tower fire [5]

  • Reference: 2018/1579
  • Question by: Andrew Dismore
  • Meeting date: 21 June 2018
Reports suggest that the London Fire Brigade is advising residents living in more than 100 tower blocks in the capital to flee in the event of a fire amid concerns that their buildings are structurally unsafe. This conflicts with the standard advice - reiterated after the Grenfell Tower tragedy last year - that residents should "stay put" if a fire breaks out. Is this change of advice correct; and if so how is it being promulgated?
