NAWDO press release – Circular Economy
[Thursday 27th March 2025]
[Start]
The National Association of Waste Disposal Officers (NAWDO) welcomes the Secretary of State’s speech making a firm commitment to delivering a Circular Economy, particularly the focus on how businesses can play a more significant role in reducing waste, increasing reuse and repair, and investing in new recycling infrastructure. Local authorities have long been calling for a greater role to be played by industry, supporting the efforts that have been made by councils for over two decades to find more ways to manage resources and waste more sustainably.
NAWDO looks forward to engaging with Government, the resources industry and a wide range of other commercial sectors, so that the enormous potential for greater circularity can be unlocked in a way that encourages sustainable investment, benefits local communities, and inspires and engages citizens.
