South West Devon Waste Partnership

The Joint Cabinet Committee oversees the South West Devon Waste Partnership, a collaboration between Plymouth City Council, Devon County Council, and Torbay Council. Established in 2007, its purpose is to find a long-term solution for managing residual waste from the southwest Devon area that cannot be recycled, reused, or composted. The committee's work focuses on developing and implementing a joint waste strategy, likely involving an Energy from Waste facility, to achieve economic and environmental benefits through a unified approach.
