First council commits to halving construction waste
Fife is the first council to commit to halving construction waste sent to landfill by 2012 under a cross sector agreement organised by the Waste & Resources Action Programme.
The Planning Commission today denied it had indulged in ``wasteful'' expenditure when it spent about Rs 30 lakhs on the renovation of public toilets in its building, Yojana Bhavan, in the capital and described media reports in this regard as ``unfortunate''.
