Comments from Michael Jay (Green Party, Mendip)

With regard to question '2' I find this question difficult to comment, both 'c' and 'd' fall within my viewpoint with regard to Zero waste being a worthy and achievable aim, but I do feel that some form of monitored incineration may have to play a role. What must be achieved with priority in my opinion and what I shall strive for is the reduction of the waste by manufacturers and retailers in the first instance. ie: reduction in unecessary packaging etc, etc. And also the education/encouragement of the general public in waste reduction and recycling.
