Environment Scrutiny Committee - Friday, 13 February 2026 - 10.00 am

The Environment Scrutiny Committee met on Friday 13 February 2026 to discuss the Humber 2100+ flood risk management strategy, a new Environment Policy, and performance reporting for waste and flooding services. The committee acknowledged the progress on the Humber 2100+ programme and recommended continued support for the initiative. They also supported the proposed new Environment Policy, with a summary of their comments to be passed to the Executive. Performance in waste management was noted as below target for recycling rates, though household waste collected per household was below target, which was viewed positively. Flood investigation reports were all completed within the six-month target.
