Additional Information

England

These data are taken from the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs statistical release – Local Authority Collected Waste Management Statistics for England – final release of Quarters 1, 2, 3 and 4 2013/14. The final results summarise waste collected and managed by local authorities in England in the 12 months from April 2013 to March 2014. They are based on quarterly data submitted by local authorities to WasteDataFlow.

For further information on the survey please see the guidance on the GOV.UK website.
Wales
Data on municipal waste was collected using an online reporting system for waste data called WasteDataFlow. In Wales, this is managed by Natural Resources Wales. From 2009-10, an expanded breakdown of materials by type was collected by WDF and this is shown here. There may be some discrepancies in the tables where components do not sum up to the totals. These discrepancies are due to rounding.

For further information please see the Waste Data pages on the StatsWales website.


Scotland
Data on municipal waste was collected using an online reporting system for waste data called WasteDataFlow.

They are based on quarterly data submitted by local authorities to WasteDataFlow.


Northern Ireland
High quality data are derived from WasteDataFlow with full coverage for all district councils and incorporating various validation checks. As the data are derived from an administrative system, they provide a complete picture of district council controlled waste activity in NI and sampling errors associated with survey data are not, therefore, an issue. Validations are conducted for each individual question, with additional global validations carried out to ensure that total tonnage of waste types is equal to the sum of the component parts. Any discrepancies are queried with the data provider.

For further information please see the Local Authority Collected Municipal Waste Data Reporting pages on the Northern Ireland Environment Agency website.
