Common use of The Report Clause in Contracts

The Report. 4.1. Increasing levels of recycling is fundamental to the Kent Joint Waste Management Strategy. This agreement serves as an incentive to maximise kerbside recycling. This directly reduces the waste disposal costs for KCC. 4.2. TWBC & TMBC will procure all necessary containers and a vehicle fleet to facilitate increased recycling at its own expense. It will maximise this service across its administrative area to reach a maximum number of households. 4.3. KCC retains the responsibility for the treatment and disposal of these materials, therefore it must contractually continue to secure material recycling facilities and maximise income. 4.4. The Partners are aware that Central Government may make material changes in legislation that could affect this agreement. If this happens the partners will negotiate in good faith and may agree to cease the agreement if it no longer serves its purpose. 4.5. The performance support payments are made to reward continual levels of performance. This places the accountability on the borough councils as the statutory collection authority and rewards both boroughs and KCC equally. 4.6. GBC adopted this incentivised method of increased recycling, resulting in recycling increasing by 7% in the first year, and this is likely to increase further.
