The scale of waste crime remains stubbornly high and there is little sign of it reducing. The more recent involvement of serious and organised criminals along with the growing difficulties to find markets for recycled materials and collapsing oil prices depressing financial return has added to the challenge for the sector and regulators.  The three CIWM Regional centres – Midlands, South West and Wales are very pleased to be joining together for the first time to look for new solutions and we would welcome your involvement.

Martin Brocklehurst – CIWM Midlands
Robert Little - CIWM Cymru Wales

AFTERNOON SESSION:  World Café Format
(Three Sessions of 12 people each)
During the Afternoon sessions we will follow a World Café format to identify and document changes that will build on current initiatives to enable our industry to fully use emerging technologies to: 

- de-bottleneck flows of secondary raw materials back into productive use; 
- bring transparency to waste material flows from source to final destination
- revolutionise data on commercial and industrial wastes being produced by waste producers in the UK;
 - learn the lessons from the roll out of Waste Data Flow which transformed data on municipal waste.

We will seek the answers to the following questions:
- “Cradle to grave” management of waste; what is current best practice
- “Cradle to grave” management of recyclate; what is current best practice
- What critical changes are required to secure effective positive value markets for secondary raw materials and how can we secure them.
