Andrew Wiltshire, Conservative spokesman for Norwich South recently stated that “Recycling rates have fallen in the city; we believe that not enough is being done to discourage single use plastics and deal with the pollution that is damaging Norwich’s air quality. We will work to better protect our environment and improve air quality.”

In response to Andrew’s statement AKS would like to say:

In the last 12 months we have invested over 420k in to newer vehicles with better MPG and lower emissions.

We have a new 560k recycling system arriving in the next month

By February 2019 we will have invested a further £1.3m in equipment and trucks.

Most importantly we now recycle 100% of all waste.
