Weekly residual rubbish collections.

According to a BBC report, Conservative Local Government Minister Bob Neill has said he wants to "reverse the legacy of Labour's savage cutbacks to weekly rubbish collections". A spokesman for the Department of Communities and Local Government has said it would not force councils to reinstate weekly collection, but had scrapped the Audit Commission and removed all the incentives to cut services.
 
When the Conservative-led District Council administration decided to introduce fortnightly collections, LRA was very concerned about the potential impacts, particularly in circumstances such as the delays caused by bad weather over the last two Christmas/New Year periods last year, and LRA Cllrs spent a lot of time dealing with residents’ problems. However, the changes did significantly reduce the amount which residents would otherwise have to pay in Council Tax, by reducing the cost of collection and increasing the amount of recycling (which also cuts costs by reducing land-fill charges).
