WHAT HAPPENS AT A SPECIAL CONSULTATIVE PROCEDURE HEARING At the start of the meeting, the Chairperson will introduce the panel members and council staff and will briefly outline the procedure. The Chairperson may then call upon the parties present to introduce themselves to the panel. The Chairperson is addressed as Mr Chairman or Madam Chair. Any party intending to give written or spoken evidence in Māori or speak in sign language should advise the hearings advisor at least five working days before the hearing so that a qualified interpreter can be provided. Catering is not provided at the hearing. Please note that the hearing may be audio recorded. Scheduling submitters to be heard A timetable will be prepared approximately one week before the hearing for all submitters who have returned their hearing attendance form. Please note that during the course of the hearing changing circumstances may mean the proposed timetable is delayed or brought forward. Submitters wishing to be heard are requested to ensure they are available to attend the hearing and present their evidence when required. The hearings advisor will advise submitters of any changes to the timetable at the earliest possible opportunity. The Meeting Procedure The usual procedure for the meeting is as follows:

The reporting officer may be asked by the Chairperson to give a brief introduction of the Special Consultative Procedure before them.

Submitters (for and against the application) are then called upon to speak. Submitters may also be represented by legal counsel or consultants and may call witnesses on their behalf. The hearing panel may then question each speaker. The council officer’s report will identify any submissions received outside of the submission period. At the hearing, late submitters may be asked to address the panel on why their submission should be accepted. Late submitters can speak only if the hearing panel accepts the late submission.

Should you wish to present written information (evidence) in support of your submission, please ensure you provide the number of copies indicated in the notification letter.

Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. Attendees may suggest questions for the panel to ask but it does not have to ask them. No cross-examination - either by the applicant or by those who have lodged submissions – is permitted at the hearing.

After the submitters have presented their cases, the chairperson may call upon council officers to comment on any matters of fact or clarification.

Following the presentation of all the evidence, the panel will deliberate in public. The public do not have any speaking rights during the deliberation process, but may attend to observe. The panel will then make a recommendation to the Environment and Community Committee and all submitters will be sent a copy of the decision.

6. Key themes emerging from the draft Waste Auckland Management and Minimisation Planconsultation process are:

i. When council makes decisions about waste the most important outcomes for submittersare:

Reducing waste to landfill and carbon emissions (26 per cent)

Reducing environmental and marine pollution (26 per cent)

Delivering value for money for ratepayers and Aucklanders (14 per cent)

Tidy public places (13 per cent)

b. Qualified support for the domestic food scraps collection with some comments over the inability to opt out, the proposed funding mechanism and the centralised processing model.

c. The need for more education and communication around waste minimisation

7. Auckland Ratepayer Alliance pro forma submissions addressed only two issues; opposing an increase in the waste levy and a move to fortnightly domestic waste collections

8. This report provides a summary of the submissions received through the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan consultation process to assist the Hearing Panel with the Hearing and Deliberation process.

9. The attachments to this report provide more detailed information about the submissions.

Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan b) Consider the written feedback received from the Upper Harbour Local Board

c) Hear the submitters and local board members that wish to provide oral feedback

Horopaki / Context

10. The Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2012 must be reviewed and updated by 20 June 2018 under the Waste Minimisation Act 2008.

11. The draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2018 sets out a range of proposed actions and initiatives that will be implemented over the next six years (the life of the plan) along with a proposed vision and targets. A full copy of the draft plan is available online at https://www.aucklandcouncil.govt.nz/have-your-say/topics-you-can-have-your-say-on/waste-minimisation-management-plan/Pages/consultation-documents.aspx#panelLinks

12. The draft plan was developed in collaboration with mana whenua and maatawaka to ensure it reflects Te Ao Māori. Input was also sought from local boards and key stakeholders including the waste and recycling industry, the community sector, business and youth.

13. The draft plan proposes to continue implementation of changes to household waste and recycling services as outlined in the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2012. The draft plan also proposes to expand the focus beyond the waste that council manages to include the 80 per cent of waste that is commercially generated and managed.

14. The priority actions proposed in the draft plan are:

i. Advocate to central government to increase the waste levy and review the waste levy structure

6

Page 7: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

ii. Advocate to central government for product stewardship, including a mandatory nationwide container deposit scheme for beverage containers and other products such as e-waste, tyres and batteries

iii. Address the three priority commercial waste streams: construction and demolition waste, organic waste and plastic waste, by leading by example and partnering with industry to identify alternatives to landfill

iv. Continue to establish the resource recovery network; twelve community recycling centres and the Waitakere resource recovery park.

v. Continue transitioning to consistent kerbside waste and recycling services including:

Pay-as-you-throw refuse collection (weekly, potentially fortnightly)

Recycling collection (fortnightly)

Food scraps collection in urban areas (weekly)

Inorganic collection (annual)

vi. Deliver the domestic kerbside food scraps collection, starting in Papakura.

vii. Address waste from council’s own operations, increasing the target for office-type wastes and setting targets for operational wastes

viii. Partnering with others to achieve a zero waste Auckland by continuing a range of community-supported programmes and working with the business sector to reduce and divert commercial waste streams.

Tātaritanga me ngā tohutohu / Analysis and advice

Public notification for submissions

15. On 28 February 2018 the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan was released for public consultation, closing on 28 March 2018.

16. Consultation was undertaken alongside the Long-term Plan 2018-2028 for which 40 local board Have Your Say events were held around the city, along with two Māori hui and two Radio Waatea interviews. Although waste was not one of the main discussion topics, around 450 comments were recorded on issues related to the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan. These have been summarized in Attachment A and are similar to the feedback received through the formal submissions.

17. As part of the Long-term Plan 2018-2028 consultation, 2044 formal submissions commented on waste. The feedback received on specific themes like the food scraps service and enforcement is similar to feedback received through the waste plan. A more detail analysis on this will be presented to councillors and local board members for their consideration as part of the Long-term Plan process.

Ngā whakaaweawe ā-rohe me ngā tirohanga a te poari ā-rohe / Local impacts and local board views

29. Local boards were previously asked to give feedback on the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2018 through workshops and reports to business meetings from September 2017-November 2017.

30. In general boards supported the draft plan. Local board resolutions and feedback from the workshops and business meetings are included in Attachment D. This feedback was taken into account before the draft plan was released for consultation in February 2018.

31. Informal feedback was also received during the consultation period from Upper Harbour Local Board who made a notice of motion in their March 2018 meeting (File ref CP2018/03106)

That the Upper Harbour Local Board:

support the development of Community Recycling Centres as part of a Resource Recovery Network; as proposed in the Draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2018.

advocate for the development of a Community Recycling Centre in Albany to meet the demands of the growing communities in Upper Harbour and East Coast Bays.

propose the investigation for a Community Recycling Centre at a suitable site in the Upper Harbour Local Board area, including 62 Greville Road (closed Rosedale Landfill site), opposite 117 Rosedale Road (present Waste Management Transfer Station) once the site required is deemed safe for use

32. Twelve local boards have also requested to give informal feedback to the Hearing Panel. These are: Albert-Eden, Franklin, Great Barrier, Hibiscus and Bays, Māngere-Ōtāhuhu, Manurewa, Ōrākei, Papakura, Puketāpapa, Rodney, Waiheke and Waitematā local boards.

33. Local boards have now been provided with a summary of feedback by their communities on the targeted rates for waste management included in the draft Long-term Plan 2018-2028 and the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2018.

34. After considering this feedback local boards will have the opportunity to make further recommendations on the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan from 1 to 10 May 2018. Because of the overlapping timeframes for reporting, it was not possible for these local board recommendations to be attached to this Hearing report. However, all local board recommendations approved by 9 May will be provided to the Hearing Panel before their deliberations on 11 May 2018.

35. Any local board recommendations made on 10 May 2018 or later will be provided to Environment and Community Committee before they approve the final plan in June 2018.

Tauākī whakaaweawe Māori / Māori impact statement

36. An overview of Te Ao Māori is included in the draft plan along with Māori priorities which were identified by mana whenua and mataawaka through the engagement process. Specific actions outlining how Council will work with Māori are also included

37. Targeted engagement with Māori was undertaken over the consultation period to encourage feedback on the draft plan. Para Kore ki Tāmaki Team promoted the consultation process with Para Kore marae and Māori organisations, two live stream interviews were aired on Radio Waatea and Waste Solutions staff attended the two Māori hui that were organised as part of the Have Your Say events.

38. As a result of this targeted approach 214 submissions were received from Māori, which represent 10 per cent of the total submissions received (when Auckland Ratepayer Alliance pro forma submissions are excluded). The majority of these submissions were from Māori residents. Five video submissions were received from rangatahi at Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Hoani Waititi Marae in te reo.

Ngā ritenga ā-pūtea / Financial implications

39. The financial implications of decision making on the draft plan will be highlighted to the panel throughout their deliberations. These will also be outlined to Environment and Community Committee in June 2018 when they adopt the final plan.

40. The draft budgets in the Long-term Plan 2018-2028 have been developed based on the assumption that the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan will be adopted in its current state. Any significant changes required to budgets will be identified in 2018/2019 and presented for approval as part of the Annual Plan 2019/2020 process.

Ngā raru tūpono / Risks

41. There is no significant risk involved in the Hearing Panel considering the submissions outlined in this report or in hearing oral submissions. Risks that arise from decision making on the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2018 will be highlighted to the panel throughout their deliberations. These will also be outlined to Environment and Community Committee in June 2018 when they adopt the final plan.

Ngā koringa ā-muri / Next steps

42. The Hearing Panel will hear verbal submissions over April and May 2018. One hundred and twenty seven submitters have indicated that they wish to be heard,

Waste is everyone’s business: we all have a part to play

Every year, we send more than 1.6 million tonnes of waste to landfill in Auckland – that’s over one tonne per person. Every tonne of waste that is landfilled comes at a cost. Most of this waste could be diverted to other, productive uses. Instead of being a cost, it could be seen as a valuable resource that can be an opportunity to create jobs, boost our economy, strengthen our communities, and take better care of the environment.

Auckland: we know we can do better

We began working on waste minimisation in 2012 and so far we have:

• reduced household waste by 10 per cent – from 160kg/person in 2012 to 144kg/person in 2017

• reduced council office waste by 30 per cent by 2014

• begun standardising domestic waste and recycling services to create an efficient kerbside collection service

• introduced new region-wide services such as the onsite inorganic collection

• conducted a food scraps trial with over 2000 households to fine-tune how we introduce the collection across all of urban Auckland

• started building a network of Community Recycling Centres, diverting useful materials from landfills, creating jobs, offering training, and connecting people with their communities

• worked alongside communities to mobilise thousands of Aucklanders to start minimising their own waste at home, at work, and in their neighbourhoods.

This has worked well, but we still face some very big challenges:

• household kerbside refuse is only 14 per cent of total waste, but business and commercial waste is growing

• total waste to landfill grew by 40 per cent between 2010 and 2016, largely due to an increase in construction and demolition waste driven by new housing needs and Auckland’s population growing

• the amounts of plastic and organic waste going to landfills has increased

• there are significant barriers to overcome, ranging from lack of financial incentives for waste minimisation to our rapid population growth.

This is your opportunity to have your say about our proposed action plan for managing waste. We will consider all feedback and issue a final plan in June 2018.

Our visionAuckland aspires to be Zero Waste by 2040, taking care of people and the environment, and turning waste into resources.

Zero Waste is about making the most of the resources we have, using them for their highest and best value, and sending nothing to landfill or to incinerators. What is currently considered waste is redefined as a valuable resource that can be used again.

In practice, this means:

• waste minimisation is integrated into design, manufacturing, retailing, and consumer choices

• materials are used in ways that preserve value, minimise environmental impacts and conserve natural resources

• products are designed and used according to the waste hierarchy, staying as high up the hierarchy as possible

• resources can be used and reused, through better systems for repurposing and remanufacturing materials into other goods.

In Auckland, Zero Waste is also about embracing Te Ao Māori – aligning with Te Ao Māori and the tradition of kaitiakitanga.

Zero Waste is a long-term goal, but there’s a lot we can do right now.

Our new planAs part of preparing this plan, we looked at three options:

1. keep going as we are, with a strong focus on the 20 per cent of waste the council can most easily influence

2. keep going as we are and expand our focus to include the 80 per cent of waste that is commercially managed

3. invest in technology such as large-scale incinerators to deal with residual waste.

We are recommending option two because:

• option one would not meet our legislated responsibility to minimise waste, especially given Auckland’s growth

• option three requires capital investment beyond our budgets and doesn’t support our Zero Waste vision.

We will work towards three targets, to reduce*:

by 2024 and new targets

for operational waste by 2021

Council office waste

60%

by 2021

Domestic waste

30%

What this means for you

We will continue working on the 20 per cent of waste we’re directly responsible for, and increase our efforts to help reduce the 80 per cent of waste that is commercially managed.

Council servicesWe will continue core functions such as household kerbside collections, with some changes to help reduce waste to landfill.

Our current and proposed services include*:

Inorganic collection Annually Already in place

Pay-as-you-throw kerbside refuse

by 2020

Introducing a kerbside collection of food

Weekly Being introduced from 2018 up

to 2021

Why pay-as-you-throw?Currently, around half of Aucklanders pay for household refuse through a targeted rate. The other half use pay-as-you-throw systems with paid bags or bin tags.

We plan to move everyone to pay-as-you-throw systems. This way, there’s a clear link between how much you throw away and how much you pay. Households using the pay-as-you-throw system generally send less waste to landfill. They also put their bin or bag out less often – waiting until it is full instead of automatically putting it out every week.

Food waste is an opportunity Nearly half the weight of an average household rubbish bin is food.

It generates unwanted greenhouse gases in landfills and we think there’s a better way to manage it – by introducing a kerbside collection for food scraps across urban Auckland. We can process food waste for useful purposes, such as making compost or generating energy. We’ll also keep supporting initiatives to help you reduce the amount of food waste you produce, and to compost at home.

Over time, as weekly collections of food scraps remove the largest (and often smelliest) volume of waste from bins, we expect to be able to reduce refuse collection to a fortnightly service.

A second life for used goodsFive Community Recycling Centres are up and running across Auckland. Here, you can drop off unwanted goods, and find a bargain. We’re working to set up more centres, with plans for a total of 12 centres by 2024. The centres are already achieving beyond expectations, diverting around 70 per cent of all material that they receive from landfill, and generating local employment opportunities.

The Hauraki Gulf IslandsWe provide waste services to Waiheke, Aotea Great Barrier, Rakino and Kawau Islands. Isolation and the expense of shipping materials off-island for disposal or recycling make waste services much more expensive than on the mainland. This cost is currently subsidised from region-wide rates funding, with the intent to reduce the subsidy over time.

Together with island communities, we have developed the Tikapa Moana Hauraki Gulf Islands Draft Waste Plan to respond to their unique needs and develop on-island solutions.

*With some variation to account for local conditions.

Commercial waste

Tackling and reducing the 80 per cent of waste that is commercially generatedMost of Auckland’s waste is generated by businesses and collected and disposed of by private waste companies.

We want to prioritise waste minimisation across three commercial waste streams:

• construction and demolition waste

• organic waste

• plastic waste.

Our goal is to work collaboratively with businesses and central government to divert more of these materials from landfill and into useful purposes, as part of seeing waste as a resource.

Our booming construction industryConstruction and demolition waste (C&D) to landfill is the single largest waste stream. Better planning and on-site management can help the building industry to divert materials such as metal, plasterboard and timber from landfill, and save money.

We have piloted the deconstruction approach in several of our own building projects, and we’re looking to work with large developers to support wider uptake. There is also a role for us to help facilitate the reuse of materials, with the development of specifications and markets for recovered materials, and a waste brokering service for construction and demolition waste.

Every year, we send more than one tonne of waste to landfill for every Aucklander. 144kg per person is collected through domestic kerbside collections. The remainder of the waste is commercially generated and managed.

Organic wasteOrganic waste is the largest contributor to greenhouse gas emissions of all waste materials sent to landfill. Alongside the domestic kerbside collection of food scraps, there is an opportunity to work with large food waste producers and processers to find alternatives to landfilling their organic wastes. We also want to work with supermarkets, restaurants and cafes, and the garden waste industry to help divert more organic waste from landfill.

PlasticsAround 12 per cent of the materials going to landfill (by weight) are plastic. While some plastics are recyclable, others can’t currently be remanufactured. We need more information on the different types of plastics going to disposal, to either limit their use in products, or find recycling solutions.

Rubble – 26%

Organics – 23%

Plastics – 15%

Timber – 12%

We need better policy toolsIf we are going to turn the tide on waste, we know that more needs to be done than we, as the council, currently have the ability to do. We need new national policy to drive change.

As part of this proposed plan, we will be asking central government to unlock some of the tools that are available under the Waste Minimisation Act.

We’re focusing on:

1. The waste levy

A levy of $10 applies to every tonne of waste that is landfilled. The levy funds are invested in waste minimisation activities. But, this rate was set in 2008, and needs to be reviewed as we think it’s too low to encourage waste minimisation. We will work with the waste and recycling industry and other councils to advocate strongly to central government to increase the levy and review how it is applied.

2. Product stewardship schemes

We support introducing mandatory, nationwide product stewardship schemes for items like tyres, e-waste and plastic bags. Under these schemes, producers and consumers share responsibility for the end of life of their products and packaging, ensuring greater reduction, reuse, recycling and recovery of materials.

We would like to see a container deposit scheme for beverage containers. Building a refundable deposit into the purchase price of drinks could greatly increase their recycling rate, reduce litter, and lessen costs for ratepayers. Product stewardship requires legislation, so again we must advocate to central government, along with other councils who support the proposal.

Independent analysis suggests that the benefits of a container deposit scheme would be three to six times greater than the costs:

• 83% of Kiwis support the establishment of a container deposit scheme

• nationally councils could expect to save up to $20.9M per annum on recycling collection costs

• over a 10 year period society would be better off by up to $645M

• beverage container recycling rates could increase from as low as 45% up to 82%.

Working together

We have built good relationships across Auckland, using partnership and creative processes to design solutions with our communities. Community-led waste minimisation efforts deliver world-leading results.

We need to do the same with the 80 per cent of waste that is commercially generated and managed. Partnerships with these sectors will become increasingly important.

We need to strengthen our relationships with waste-producing businesses, the waste and recycling industries, mana whenua, mataawaka, schools, community and other organisations. This will help us put our proposed action plan into practice.

“Zero waste is a bug and once you catch it, it influences everything you do – what you buy, what you eat, your everyday choices.”

– Community waste champion

Our Waste Minimisation and Innovation Fund seed-funds ideas to minimise waste. Funding is available for businesses, community groups, schools and Māori/iwi organisations.

Funding

We currently spend around $113 million per year on domestic waste services, including refuse, recycling, inorganic collections, litter, and illegal dumping. We spend another $5-8 million each year looking after old landfills.

The amount budgeted for council-provided waste services will remain around the same for the next decade. As new arrangements for domestic collection services become business as usual, new activities will become possible within the budget. We can expand our focus on minimising commercial waste streams.

We propose to fund the kerbside collection of food scraps through a new targeted rate for households in urban areas. This will be part of the 10-year Budget consultation, happening alongside this waste consultation.

Summary of Submissions on Draft Auckland Waste

Management and Minimisation Plan 2018

Introduction

On 5 December 2017, the Environment and Community Committee of Auckland Council approved

the draft Auckland Waste Management and Minimisation Plan (WMMP) for public consultation.

The draft WMMP is a revision of the Waste Management and Minimisation Plan 2012. The draft

WMMP includes input from the Auckland Council Waste Assessment 2017, pre-statutory

engagement with Councillors, Local Boards, Mana Whenua and Maatawaka, community waste-wise

partners, youth, the Community Recycling Centre operators, and stakeholders from the recycling

and waste industry.

The Committee passed the following resolutions (ENV/2017/185) :

Adopt the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan: Working Together for Zero

Waste, as the statement of proposal, pursuant to section 44 of the Waste Minimisation Act

2008 and sections 83 and 87 of the Local Government Act 2002, for the purpose of

undertaking formal consultation in accordance with the special consultative procedure.

Approve that the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan: Working Together for

Zero Waste be made publicly available for consultation on 28 February 2018 with the

consultation period ending on 28 March 2018 (the “Consultation Period”).

Approve that the Auckland Council Waste Assessment be made publicly available with the

Waste Management and Minimisation Plan: Working Together for Zero Waste, for public

consultation pursuant to section 50 (3)(a) and 44(e) of the Waste Minimisation Act 2008.

Note that public consultation will occur concurrently with the special consultative procedure

for the Long-term Plan 2018-2028.

Recommend that the Governing Body delegate authority for spoken interaction at public

engagement events during the consultation period in line with any such delegation made in

respect of the Long-term Plan 2018-2028 and/or Auckland Plan refresh.

Feedback from the consultation process is intended to assist council determine the most appropriate

combination of council’s legislative obligations and community expectations. This report

summarises the submissions received as a result of the public consultation.

Public notification of the draft WMMP was included in the extensive publicity around the 10-year

Budget (Long-term Plan) 2018-2028 consultation process. Submissions were also encouraged

through the community waste-wise partners and networks (including youth), the five Community

Recycling Centre operators, council’s Sustainable Schools Team, and the Para Kore Ki Tāmaki project

to marae and marae whanau. An email was sent to the waste and resource recovery sector,

businesses, and industry bodies, informing them of the draft WMMP consultation process.

The draft WMMP, summary of the draft WMMP, and submission feedback forms were made

available online as part of akhaveyoursay consultation process. Hard copies were also made

available at libraries and Have Your Say events. The draft WMMP summary document and feedback

form were translated into Chinese, Korean, and New Zealand sign language and made available in an

'easy read' format.

A total of 6,758 submissions were received as a result of the consultation process. Of these, 4,605

were in the form of pro forma online submissions from Auckland Ratepayers’ Alliance (ARA). Three

online submission forms were made available on the ARA website combining topics relating to both

the draft WMMP and the 10-year Budget (Long-term Plan) 2018-2028. To provide a clearer picture

of submissions on the draft WMMP, ARA submissions are identified and reported on separately

where applicable.

A small number of submissions that were late, were not processed in time for inclusion in this

summary report.

In addition to the formal submissions, there were a number of informal submissions including

pictures drawn by primary school children, videos from rangatahi from Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o

Hoani Waititi Marae, and verbal feedback received through the 40 Have Your Say Events that were

attended by Waste Solutions staff.

In the following sections of this summary report, each of the seven questions in the submission

feedback form is presented separately. Each section includes a synopsis of the themes that emerged

from the consultation. The summary, ordered by feedback form questions, is followed by an

analysis of responses from a range of submitter groups and an analysis of pro forma and informal

submissions.

Throughout this summary report, verbatim responses from submitters are presented in italics.

Further verbatim comments are included in Appendices 7 to 11.

Errors and omissions

Every effort has been made to ensure the data that has been presented is as accurate a reflection of

the results of the submissions process as is possible. Any errors that are detected will be corrected.

Errors in form completion

The submission feedback form enabled the public to submit their views on the draft WMMP. The

feedback form requested submitters to tick a box to show their level of support for six of seven

questions included on the form. Five of these six questions ask for submitters to tick a box to show

whether they: ‘Strongly disagree’, ‘Disagree’, ‘Neutral’, ‘Agree’, ‘Strongly agree’, or ‘Don’t know’.

The layout of these boxes, with ‘Strongly disagree’ at the top of the list, may have confused some

submitters as some of the comments provided by submitters that ticked ‘Strongly disagree’ were

clearly in agreement with the question. In the time available to prepare this summary report, it has

not been possible to do a separate quantification or analysis of this issue.

education with regards to schools, businesses and the public. Waste reduction at source was

mentioned by some submitters (“reducing consumption and production of unnecessary waste at

source”), and there were several comments about the importance of community ownership of waste

solutions and a small number regarding the reduction of the use of plastics. A small number

mentioned the need to keep costs and/or rates down.

Q2 - Focus on business and commercial activities

In the last plan, we focused mostly on our services to households, which handle around 20 per cent of

the waste that goes to landfill. Now we want to expand our waste minimisation efforts to include the

80 per cent of waste that comes from businesses and commercial activities. What do you think of this

approach and why?

2.1 Level of support for proposal

An analysis of the overall level of submitters’ agreement with the question is given in the table

below. Only those submissions that answered the question have been included in the analysis. A

breakdown of levels of support by Local Board is given in Appendix 2. A range of comments is

provided in Appendix 8.

The level of support for council to expand waste minimisation efforts to include the 80% of waste

that comes from business and commercial activities was very high. Overall 84% of submitters

‘Strongly agree’ or ‘Agree’ with this approach. Nine per cent of submitters ‘Disagree’ or ‘Strongly

disagree’. Seven per cent of submitters were either neutral of didn’t know.

2.2 Themes emerging

2.2.1 Submissions agreeing with proposal

Submitters who agreed or strongly agreed with the proposal (84%) generally felt that it was logical

for council to include the 80 per cent of waste from business and commercial activities due to the

large proportion of the waste stream it comprises. “Because the commercial sector is responsible for

80%, and because you can't have a double-standard of doing well at home, but not at work - the one

influences the other, so a double-pronged approach is best.” A similar proportion of submissions

stated that businesses need to do their fair share to reduce waste.

45

10

Many submissions made broad reference to the amount of waste generated by construction and

demolition work and noted that they would like to see specific focus in this space.

Many submissions, while agreeing with the proposal, assumed that it would be council providing

additional services to the commercial sector although this is not specified in the draft WMMP.

There was support for education on diversion and minimisation being provided by council, but many

believed this would need to be accompanied by regulation or incentives as “Businesses won't make

changes unless they are forced to. The environment should not be collateral damage for their

commercial choices”.

A number of submissions raised concerns about environmental degradation. Specific issues referred

to were pollution of waterways, emissions associated with global climate change, microplastic

pollution, and the leaching of toxic chemicals into the soil from landfill.

There was significant support for the reduction of, or banning, of single use packaging – both

supporting council implementing this or seeing businesses being responsible for reducing waste by

influencing the amount of packaging being produced.

2.2.2 Submissions disagreeing with proposal

The submissions that disagree or strongly disagree with the proposal (9%) mostly mention cost as

the reason as it is not seen as ratepayers’ responsibility to pay for business waste minimisation

efforts. Some submitters disagreed with council expanding its focus to commercial waste

management on the basis that they believe council is not yet adequately managing residential waste

and should improve residential waste minimisation first.

A small number of submissions state that central government should be more proactive.

“The regulation of private industry is not best done by local governance, rather better by central

government. In my opinion councils do not tend to have a good understanding of how businesses

work and can create complex regulations which suck up time and money from organisations trying to

meet the regulations. I would rather council supported the development of accreditation schemes or

solutions created and managed by private industry, who may be more effective at driving positive

behaviour change.”

While most of the waste and resource recovery industry submissions agreed with council expanding

its efforts to include business and commercial activities, Waste Management NZ Ltd strongly

disagreed. Waste Management NZ Ltd has “serious concerns about Auckland Council taking a more

active role in the commercial waste sector in Auckland than it already does, and underplaying the

important role that private operators play”. The submission repeatedly raises the issue of

competition law - “...the Council, as a waste operator itself, will potentially be in breach of

competition law where it attempts to assert greater control over commercial competitors through

regulation.”

Packaging Council of New Zealand Inc. questions “what is the justification for directing rate

payer resources into the private commercial sector?...We suggest that ‘plastic waste’ is such a

general term as to be worthless in the context of this draft plan.”

Q3 - Reduce commercial C&D, plastic, and organic waste

The three largest categories of commercial waste going to landfill are construction and demolition

waste, plastics, and organic waste (food, green and other types of organic waste). We want to work

with businesses to try new approaches to reduce this waste. What do you think of this approach and

why?

from landfill. Sixty per cent of submitters ‘Strongly agree’ and a further 27% ‘Agree’.

Seven per cent of submitters ‘Strongly disagree’ and 1% ‘Disagree’ with this proposal.

3.2 Themes emerging

3.2.1 Submissions agreeing with proposal

Most submissions agreed or strongly agreed (87%) with the proposal and many stated that

businesses need to do their fair share to reduce waste and agree that the three priority waste

streams should be reduced or recycled. There was strong support for businesses taking more

responsibility for the waste they produce.

47

Page 48: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

While many submissions suggested that council should play a role in both educating and supporting

businesses to achieve effective diversion, a number of submitters believed the proposal needed to

be supported with regulation, bylaws, and/or financial incentives.

There was a general feeling amongst submitters that businesses need to take more responsibility for

the waste they are producing but many considered that businesses would not make the necessary

changes without incentives, either in the form of mandatory waste management plans, product

stewardship schemes, or through other financial incentives. There was strong agreement that

council should reinforce such initiatives with education and support for businesses.

A high proportion of submissions in favour of reducing food waste suggested a food redistribution

system as the first step in reducing waste, with excess food from businesses being given to those in

need. In general, there was support for better systems to collect and process all types of organics.

Fewer submissions commented on construction and demolition waste than on organics. Many of the

submissions acknowledged that construction and demolition waste contributes significantly to waste

to landfill and expressed concern at the potential for this to increase with the future development in

Auckland. These submitters agreed it should be a focus for council. Many submissions observed

that only a single bin was used at construction sites and nothing was recycled.

Many of the submissions that agreed mentioned concerns about pollution and environmental

protection. Plastic packaging was mentioned frequently in the context of plastic waste.

Product stewardship and the broader idea that businesses and producers need to be responsible for

the end-of-life of their products was frequently referred to, with a particular focus on reducing

plastic packaging.

The majority of submissions from the waste and resource recovery industries expressed support for

council working with businesses to reduce the three priority waste streams.

3.2.2 Submissions disagreeing with proposal

Most of the submissions that disagree or strongly disagree with council working with businesses to

reduce the three specified waste streams (8%) state that, as rates are paid for household services

and not for businesses, council should stay focussed on household waste.

Northland Waste considers that a cost/benefit analysis should be undertaken before council

embarks on commercial waste minimisation. “What, for example will be the impact on the cost of

new homes, and will the environmental benefits be sufficient to outweigh the impacts?”

Waste Management NZ Ltd “agrees that new approaches to reducing commercial waste should

continue to be explored, but strongly disagrees that the Council should drive this”.

Q4 - Community Recycling Centres

We want to make it easy for people to make better choices locally about how they dispose of

unwanted items, so those items can be reused or recycled. Five Community Recycling Centres are up

and running and we have plans to provide seven more by 2024.

4.1 Level of support for proposal

Overall, there was a high level of support from submitters for council’s approach to Community

Recycling Centres (CRCs). Eighty-six per cent of submitters ‘Strongly agree’ (59%) or ‘Agree’ (27%)

with this approach. Eight per cent of submitters ‘Disagree’ or ‘Strongly disagree’.

4.2 Themes emerging

4.2.1 Submissions agreeing with proposal

The general opinion from submitters that agreed or strongly agreed (86%) with council’s plan to

provide seven more CRCs by 2024 was that, if CRCs make it easier for people to reuse and recycle,

then they should be supported.

Many submissions mentioned the need for education. This included the need for council to do a

better job to raise awareness about the existence of the centres themselves: “This is a good

approach however I wasn’t aware of these Community Recycling Centres so the communication of

this initiative needs improving.” Submitters also mentioned the need for better waste minimisation

education overall: “I hate not knowing what to do with unwanted stuff! Better education and

49

Page 50: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

Attachment B

14

support please! I absolutely believe so much more could be diverted from landfill.” There were also

suggestions that the CRCs could be hubs for waste minimisation education.

There were suggestions around CRCs providing an opportunity for the repurposing of items: “I'm a

fan of any dump shop. Recycling is not the solution though, it would be great if each centre also had

a Repair café…the council has a role in encouraging a change in mindset from buy cheap and replace

- to buy well and repair. I feel a little cynical that all the onus is being put on individuals to make

change - which is why I'm so pleased to hear you plan to work with commercial businesses. “

Many submitters suggested that there should be more CRCs, preferably one in every suburb to

ensure it is convenient for the community and to ensure that maximum recycling and waste

diversion occurs: “The more there are, the easier they are to access; the easier they are to access, the

easier it is to recycle. It's THAT simple.”

Some submitters felt that CRCs would remove some of the barriers that lead to illegal dumping,

although several expressed the feeling that 12 CRCs would not be enough to have a genuine impact:

“At the moment it’s pretty much either your standard rubbish/recycling or the dump which is too

expensive so people leave items on the side of the road.”

Submissions were received with specific requests that CRCs be established in the following areas to

stem illegal dumping: Clevedon, Papakura, Ardmore, New Lynn, Titirangi Beach, Torbay, Waitakere

Ranges, Manurewa and south Auckland.

There were several comments that mentioned the multiple benefits of CRCs (social, economic and

environmental), particularly job creation. Comments also discussed the opportunity for people to

have more local visibility and ownership of their unwanted goods by seeing them being processed at

the CRCs: “From what I have seen of the Community Recycling Centres, when communities are

allowed to be involved there is a huge mind shift to helping and taking ownership.”

About half of the submissions from the waste and resource recovery industry were in support. Junk

Run states that “This is an excellent concept and needs to be expanded to include licensed

commercial operators. The concept needs to be expanded to include items from commercial

businesses and demolition and building sites.”

4.2.2 Submissions disagreeing with proposal

Fewer than 20 submissions stated that they would prefer to have the old inorganic collection

reinstated: “The inorganic collection that was operating in the past took care of this problem and

minimizes fly tipping”. “Waste of council money. Op shops do this already. The scheme will deprive

charities of income… Bring back inorganic collections so individuals can scavenge to provide income,

recycle, minimise waste - all those things you are trying to encourage, you have stopped by stopping

inorganic collections.”

Northland Waste opposes CRCs, asserting that “… community groups incur greater expense and

achieve lower levels of waste diversion than efficient private operators.” Waste Management NZ Ltd

considers that “…Auckland is already appropriately serviced by private resource recovery and

recycling centres.”

Q5 - Product stewardship

We want to encourage central government to introduce product stewardship schemes. This includes

a container deposit scheme where drink containers such as plastic, glass bottles and cans include a

refundable deposit when returned for recycling. This would encourage more recycling and help to

shift the costs of recovery from council and ratepayers to the producers and consumers of beverages.

What do you think of this approach and why?

Eighty-four per cent of submitters ‘Agree’ (23%) or ‘Strongly agree’ (61%) with the proposal and

state that council should encourage central government to introduce product stewardship schemes.

Ten per cent of submitters ‘Disagree’ (2%) or ‘Strongly disagree’ (8%).

5.2 Themes emerging

5.2.1 Submissions agreeing with proposal

Of the submitters who made comments on product stewardship, the comments were

overwhelmingly in support of a scheme being introduced (84% agreed or strongly agreed). “Really

great way to get more people to recycle. I think this is one of the best ideas the council has had in a

long time!!”

Most people commented on the specifics of a container deposit scheme (CDS) rather than Product

Stewardship. Reasons for supporting CDS included the increase in recycling and reduction in littering

this would be expected to cause. “All the research we've seen shows that this is the best way to

51

Page 52: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

Attachment B

16

increase recycling and reduce littering. We have a big problem with littering in our area and with

plastic containers getting into the waterways. We think that the public would really get behind this

as a way of earning pocket-money and fundraising. We hope it would also pave the way for other

products to be included in product stewardship schemes.”

Many comments referred to the success of such schemes overseas. “Let's do this already! It is

extremely tiring that we are still dragging our feet on this one when case studies all over the world

prove that this actually works.”

Some criticism of central government came through in the comments, such as “Overseas experience

has strongly supported this approach. The "hands off" approach by previous governments is

deplorable in the face of this evidence.”

A number of submissions stated a clear understanding of and support for Extended Producer

Responsibility, discussing the need for incentives for both consumers and producers to not purchase

or manufacture wasteful goods. “I think this is a great way to incentivize consumers and also make

manufacturers/companies think twice about the materials they’re using.”

“Large polluters like McDonalds and CocaCola, who's products are a notable feature of rubbish

littered across the city, should have a levy added on to the price of products, paid for by the

consumers purchasing them (and irresponsibly disposing of them), to help contribute to the cost of

cleaning up their products which are littered all over the city.”

“When companies have to take responsibility for their packaging waste they make more socially

responsible decisions. Local government and ratepayers should not have to absorb the cost of this

disposal while producers privatize the profits gained from irresponsible business practices.”

“Litter from drink bottles is a problem in the community where I live. They end up in drains and in the

local streams. Having a bottle deposit would tidy up our streets and provide a little pocket money for

locals. This would also send a message to the manufacturers. It is time for NZ to live up to its clean

and green image and catch up environmentally with the rest of the developed world.”

There was widespread support for product stewardship from the waste and resource recovery

industry. Tyres, e-waste, and batteries were specifically mentioned as requiring the support that

product stewardship schemes would provide.

Waste Management NZ states that product stewardship schemes “shift the cost of recycling waste to

the consumers of products, and away from commercial waste industry operators (which in turn

assists these operators to provide other low-cost waste services to ratepayers).”

5.2.2 Submissions disagreeing with proposal

Of those who were against product stewardship schemes (10% disagreed or strongly disagreed), the

majority of comments stated that a scheme would cost too much or wouldn’t make a difference.

“They don't work. And the huge cost of a vast bureaucracy to manage them will just mean more

expense for the ratepayer.”

A wide range of reasons were stated as to why people felt CDS wouldn’t work, from the volatility of

plastic markets, to a lack of faith that people would use the scheme when they can already recycle

52

Page 53: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

17

through the kerbside system. Some comments assumed that council would run the scheme and

they were not confident that this was appropriate “You can’t be trusted to get this right”, “This is just

another business that council will not run efficiently. End up with a large number of managers being

paid more in an ever expanding bureaucracy.”

There were also a number of submitters that disagreed with CDS as they preferred to see a

reduction in the use of plastics “Better to reduce use of plastic at source”, “So thing needs to be done

but a ban on single use plastic drinking bottles would be better. Leave fossil fuels in the ground. Stop

global warming!”

Overseas examples of CDS were not seen as successful by all submitters. “I think there are serious

issues with container deposit schemes (CDS) as implemented. Recently NSW introduced CDS, and

awarded the entire (lucrative) contract to a single (monopoly) provider who promptly installed their

(quite old) technology across the state, leading to lengthy queues of homeless people putting other

people off using the scheme. I don't believe we want recycling to be the domain of desperate people

and a form of welfare - we want everyone participating because it is the right thing to do.”

The Packaging Forum operates two voluntary product stewardship schemes and does not agree with

the draft WMMP supporting a mandatory container deposit scheme based on the perception that

drink containers are being recycled at a low rate and causing a major litter problem. The Forum

“suggested to Auckland Council officials that we identify the true beverage container recycling rate in

Auckland”.

The Packaging Council of New Zealand disagrees with the draft WMMP using the terms ‘product

stewardship’ and ‘extended producer responsibility’ interchangeably. “Of particular concern is the

freedom using the term ‘stewardship’ interchangeably with ‘extended producer responsibility’ gives

to Council and consumers to ‘opt out’ of their share of responsibility for waste prevention and

management.”

comment on the draft WMMP.

6.2 Themes emerging

6.2.1 Submissions agreeing with proposal

Many submitters agreed that the Hauraki Gulf Islands are unique and require a unique plan. There

were numerous comments about the ecological significance of the gulf and the islands, and the need

to keep them pristine for generations to come. The importance of protecting the marine

environment was also mentioned in many submissions.

There were a number of comments about the different needs of the Hauraki Gulf Islands, and the challenges due to the cost of transporting waste and recyclables to the mainland.

54

Page 55: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

19

A number of pro-forma submissions were received with the following comment - “Yes, it is unique

and it is important to get it right on Waiheke island or else our marine environment becomes even

more polluted. 1 - Our situation as an island is unique because we have always dealt with the entire

waste stream. 2 - We face natural tariff barriers in freight, which limits our options. We have to be

smarter with on island solutions. 3 - Our community has proved time and time again that it really

cares about this issue and wants a satisfactory answer, the thousands of submissions to the Royal

Commissions on the governance of Auckland demanding local control of our waste stream is

evidence of this.”

The need for local solutions was referred to in a number of submissions, especially with reference to

Waiheke.

Some requested stronger goals from council: “The idea to address the island/gulf-specific waste

management needs is great! It's also impressive to see it framed from a community & iwi

engagement focus. That said, the plan can be stronger by setting quantifiable goals for waste to

landfill minimisation (e.g. "divert 80% of organic waste from landfill by 2022" instead of "divert

'more' organic waste...").”

A minority of submissions from the waste and resource recovery industry supported council’s

approach in the draft HGI draft Plan.

6.2.2 Submissions disagreeing with proposal

Ten submitters provided comments disagreeing with the draft WMMP. The comments were varied,

from not wanting user-pays to requesting that Waiheke waste collection not become fortnightly.

A small number of submitters disagreed that the Hauraki Gulf Islands required a separate plan or

should be treated differently.

Low Impact, the manufacturer of a vermicomposting system, disagrees with the kerbside services

included in the HGI draft Plan, specifically organic waste collection. “If a proper evaluation had been

done at the time, the answers to some very basic and common sense questions regarding the

proposed kerbside pick up of organic waste would be in the public realm. They are not, and I believe

it is because the Council has not answered them before committing to the kerbside pick up.”

Waste Management NZ Ltd stated “Waiheke Island has a significant seasonal population fluctuation

and should remain as part of the Auckland waste system”. Waste Management also submits that it

“has developed a transfer station and resource recovery facility on Waiheke Island for the Council. ….

This is a model that could be used on other Hauraki Gulf Islands”.

6.2.3. Island-specific submissions

A small number of submissions are specific to individual islands. These are summarised below:

Waiheke

A number of submitters from Waiheke noted how much their community cares about waste,

the island’s strong waste minimisation culture, the effectiveness of how the community

used to be responsible for the entire waste stream and finding innovative uses for ‘waste’

55

Page 56: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

material, and the need for local control of the waste stream. “Let Waiheke make their own

decisions”.

Three submitters noted the success of dealing with food scraps through local composting

initiatives and how this could be up-scaled.

One submitter opposed the move to fortnightly rubbish collections and the impact this

would have on weekend residents and holiday makers.

A local community recycler strongly advocated for a community-run resource recovery park

that manages and controls all waste on Waiheke. They state that this could see a reduction

in at least 30% of waste taken off the island and remove any need for a ratepayer "subsidy".

They also believe that it’s unsustainable to continue free green waste disposal on Waiheke,

when it’s charged for everywhere else, and that any solution for Waiheke needs to ensure

maximum waste is diverted on the island and not shipped off.

Kawau Island

One submitter noted the overflowing bins at Sandspit while another noted the problems

with inorganic waste and the cost and difficulty of removing it from the island.

One submitter noted the need for more recycling facilities to be available at the boat club

and for a free recycling pick up because too many glass bottles are going to landfill. One

submitter supported the recycle bins at Sandspit.

One submitter stated that Kawau residents should pay for their own rubbish and not just

dump it at Sandspit wharf.

Great Barrier

One submitter stated they should have source-separated recycling on Great Barrier because

comingled recycling leads to the loss of integrity of the recyclable material.

“I don't see an advantage in having to pay for green waste to be disposed of at the tip as this

is an asset to be made into compost that can be sold. I would like to see the building material

made from scrap go ahead as it would use up a lot of landfill materials. I would like to see

people able to go ahead and drop off recycling for free at the tip. I would like to see the

inorganic waste collection and reuse and rebuild shop develop as planned. Though the

current location of this shop is not widely known. I agree more effort needs to be to educate

people about what can be recycled and I think co-mingling process makes this harder for

people to get it right. I still fret that recyclables are wasted due to contamination. We had a

great system here in the past where we employed people at the tip to sort recyclables and

people would also sort them at their gates. I am not sure how you are going to get the

tourists and boaties waste managed. But good on you for having the ambition.”

Q7 - Other feedback

Do you have any other comments about the draft Waste Management and Minimisation Plan?

Question 7 offered an opportunity for submitters to provide comment on any other aspects of the

draft WMMP that were not covered in the previous six questions.

A wide range of topics were mentioned in the comments provided under Question 7. All comments

that did not refer to the six specific questions in the council submission feedback form are included

in the analysis under Question 7. A range of comments is provided in Appendix 13.

The two largest pro forma submissions (EcoMatters and Auckland Ratepayers’ Alliance) include

comments that are captured in this section.

7.1 Waste levy

The Auckland Ratepayers’ Alliance submitted 4,605 pro forma submissions that opposed council

advocating for an increase in the national waste levy. “I submit that you do not use ratepayers’

money to lobby government for an increase to the National Waste Levy. An increase will just increase

costs for ratepayers on top of your proposed regional fuel tax, and increased rates”.

Apart from the ARA pro forma submissions, 249 submitters included a comment about the waste

levy. A majority of these expressed strong support for an increase in the levy. “Strong government

lobbying is required to ensure the waste levy is increased to something approaching average

international levels. Only with a financial disincentive will companies start looking at other options.”

While most businesses and waste industry players who commented on the waste levy were in

support of an increase, it was also suggested that any increase needs to be well-signalled, with

staged increase or at a lower maximum level.

The 195 EcoMatters pro forma (see section 9.1) stated that “I want to see a gradual increase in the

landfill waste levy from $10/tonne to $140/tonne”.

Both EnviroWaste Services Ltd and Waste Management NZ Ltd support the expansion of the waste

levy to include all types of disposal sites.

Northland Waste questions the research used by council to support increasing the waste levy. “We

invite councillors to question the motive behind this initiative very clearly, and examine without

prejudice, the cost implications on this initiative to the average Aucklander.”

Green Gorilla “disagree with the extent of the suggested landfill levy proposals and support a shift to

say $50 tonne over 5 years. Higher rates will produce some perverse avoidance outcomes and risk

being a financial burden without actually increasing diversion”.

Oji Fibre Solutions do not consider “any increase in Auckland's waste disposal cost as a result of an

increase in the waste levy helpful or justified as a solution to solid waste”. Their view is that

57

22

"Recycling of commodities unavoidably generates some waste” and that ”the waste levy needs to be

seen as an unavoidable cost, a reduction in long term profitability".

7.2 Fortnightly waste collections

The Auckland Ratepayers’ Alliance submitted 4,605 pro forma submissions opposed to a “reduction

in collection services at an increased cost”, presumably relating to the move to fortnightly waste

collections.

“I oppose the draft plan that would see my collection service reduced, but at an increased cost.” “In

addition, any increase to Council’s provision of waste services should only be done if it leads to better

service at a lower cost to ratepayers – not for ideological reasons.”

There were a small number of other submissions that opposed a move to fortnightly waste

collections. “I oppose the move to fortnightly rubbish collection. We moved to small rubbish bins and

now we have rubbish bags being dumped everywhere. This will only get worse with fortnightly

collection. It is absolutely ridiculous that this is being suggested. In south Auckland households are

much larger and so have more rubbish and they can least afford paying for more rubbish bins. So

people will just dump stuff in parks.”

A few submissions supported the move to fortnightly waste collections. “I strongly agree with

moving to a fortnightly, user-pays system across the region. It is my view that ensuring residents face

the true cost of waste is the most effective way of encouraging behavioural change.”

7.3 Organics

There were approximately 1,100 comments made on organic waste, principally around the food

scraps collection and composting.

Many comments were made about food scrap collections with the majority of submissions giving

qualified support for the service. Most people strongly support the concept of diverting food away

from landfill, though some question the universal charge for it, mentioning how they already

compost, worm-farm or bokashi at home. A number want to be able to opt out of the service and

not be charged for it. “We are concerned about the new service coming to households, as there is an

increase to come in our rates to pay for this service, when we already compost our food waste. So,

we should be able to opt out of some of the service.”

EcoMatters Trust pro forma submissions support a short-term targeted rate to set up the service

but for it to be a user-pays service in the future. They also support decentralised processing and

community composting. “I support a food waste collection in Auckland. I support a short-term

targeted rate to pay for the initial coordination of food waste management, but would like a pay-as-

you-throw food waste collection within five years. I support investment into decentralised community

composting hubs as the primary way to manage food waste in Auckland, with community garden

facilitators funded to support composting.” A small number of submissions supported providing

households with vermicomposting bins or in-sink waste disposal units rather than introducing a

council food waste collection.

“The food scraps service has been one I have utilised over the last two years, as my area has been

lucky enough to have the trial run. This is a great service, and a straight forward way for local

58

23

residents to make a difference. It has reduced our general waste noticeably. With the food scraps and

recycling services in place, residents are really able to reduce the amount of household waste going

to landfill. Such a positive change!”

Some submitters see the service as a way to address climate change. “Think it’s important to have a

food scraps collection to help address climate change….. Please bring food waste bins and have a

facility to process it and turn into compost in Auckland!!”

Other submitters are impatient to receive the service. “Personally I just want to know how this will

affect me. We currently pay Econowaste for our rubbish collection service as the council doesn't

provide this service to our area. Will the foodscraps initiative be heading our way. The sooner the

better as a HUGE amount of our waste is food scraps. I find the council incredibly slow to implement

these changes.” Māori submitters strongly support the food scraps collection, particularly submitters

from the south. “We need food bins in South Auckland to educate Whanau in food/leai waste/para.”

Waste Management NZ Ltd strongly opposes the proposal for a kerbside food scraps collection. In

their view “…the Council’s methodology of measuring foodwaste tonnes to landfill is flawed and

misleading and is likely to result in the unnecessary development of highly inefficient alternative

technologies” and also “... disagrees that organic waste contributes to the level of carbon dioxide

emissions described in the Draft WMMP”.

The Bioenergy Association notes that “The use of food waste to produce energy is used internationally as a means of reducing waste disposal to landfill” and that “Extending the household food waste collections to small businesses (cafes etc) should also be considered to achieve economies of scale and collection efficiencies”.

7.4 Education

Over 330 submitters commented specifically about waste education or communication. A common

theme was support for more waste education and communication, or investment in education on

waste reduction, often suggested via schools. A few submitters took this point further to suggest

council should provide more information to residents on product life cycles.

Some submitters thought education should be undertaken through community groups that can

connect schools with what is happening locally.

Respondents also commented that council should provide more information on what/where/how to

recycle, and what happens to the recycling collected.

There is little comment from the waste and resource recovery industry regarding education. Waste

Management NZ Ltd states that “Waste Management is of the view that the Council should focus on

minimising the amount of waste that is generated at source, as this is an area where it is able to add

value through education”.

7.5 Zero Waste

Many submissions (mostly pro formas) mention ‘zero waste’ specifically (“I want Auckland to be Zero

Waste by 2040”), and the concept/vision was implicit in many comments recorded. There was a

59

Page 60: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

Attachment B

24

handful of comments that New Zealand’s clean green image is either a fallacy, or is under threat

from our bad waste habits, and therefore we need to move towards zero waste.

7.6 Community Recycling Centres (CRCs)

There was a significant level of support for Community Recycling Centres. Over 260 submitters

included additional comments about CRCs. The idea of funding local or community solutions rather

than creating a centralised collection was supported by many submitters. “I feel that there should be

more emphasis on a community empowerment model - fund the community to identify local

solutions where possible.”

There was a moderate number of comments (mostly from pro forma submissions) regarding

Community Recycling Centres requesting that the network be completed. Some pro forma

submissions also requested that CRCs be used as composting hubs.

There were a number of submitters that stated that they did not know that there was a CRC network

in Auckland.

The re-establishment of a community-run CRC on Waiheke was requested by a number of

submitters.

7.7 Product Stewardship

Over 240 submitters included additional comments about product stewardship. There was a

significant level of support for a container deposit scheme, with many people talking about their

positive experience of this while overseas, or when they were a child.

Support shown was predominantly for a community based or non-profit CDS - many comments in

support were from pro forma submissions “I want to see a non-commercial bottle deposit scheme for

beverage containers, where proceeds go into recycling education.”

There was much support, mostly from pro forma submissions, for mandatory product stewardship

schemes for e-waste, batteries, tyres and packaging.

Banning single-use plastic bags and packaging was mentioned in a large number of submissions, with

a smaller number suggesting a levy should be used to reduce their use.

7.8 Public Place Recycling

More public place recycling was requested by approximately 45 submitters, particularly at events

and in public places, including parks.

7.8 Hazardous materials

Several submitters requested that council provide better systems or facilities for the handling of

domestic hazardous wastes such as e-waste and batteries.

Interwaste and Upcycle Battery Recycling focused their submissions on possible improvements to

the draft WMMP’s handling of hazardous wastes.

8 - Analysis of submissions by group

8.1 Views of Māori

Overall, there was strong support for the draft WMMP from Māori submissions, in particular for the

Māori priorities and actions that were identified through the pre-engagement process.

There were 214 submissions received from Māori (12% of submissions when ARA pro formas are

excluded) – three from Para Kore Marae and the others predominantly from Māori residents. Five

were video submissions received – four from rangatahi at Te Kura Kaupapa Māori o Hoani Waititi

Marae and one from Matariki Marae. No submissions were received from mana whenua.

Key areas of support were for an increase of the waste levy, resources and support for Māori

initiatives, the food scraps kerbside collection (particularly from south Auckland respondents),

Community Recycling Centres and local jobs, advocating for product stewardship (particularly a

container deposit scheme), and a focus on construction and demolition waste. A number of

submissions also commented on illegal dumping, advocating for reducing the use of plastic, and

banning single-use plastic bags.

Videos from Hoani Waititi Kura Kaupapa emphasised care for Papatuanuku and the environment,

Māori health and wellbeing, eliminating landfills, food waste collections, and the importance of

product stewardship.

“We are impressed with the Māori perspective and content. Pai ano. Prioritise Māori Action Plan.”

“The earth is precious and I want to do anything to protect it.”

“I've read the following proposal & wholeheartedly agree with it. As a consumer & small business

owner I would happily recycle my waste & love the idea of that also benefiting my local community.

The more people who speak up, the better. “

“Need to tackle how much we produce not just how we dispose of it.”

“I would love to see more education and implementing if schemes with our schools a must have! More community groups tackling local issues and funding available for these groups. More support systems in place for families who do not understand recycling and zero waste. Ability to plant fruit trees everywhere to feed our communities.”

“For the sake of the planet, we must take action wherever we can. If it's do-able, it should absolutely

be done.”

“I believe there needs to be a community recycling centre for every local board area. Each local board area has enough people to sustain its own centre, and by dealing with waste locally, we are able to see what we're creating and be connected with its end-life. This would create local employment opportunities and ensure that the community benefits from having such a centre.”

“We need; ongoing support and education for communities on how to reduce waste, including increased funding for schools to implement waste minimisation programmes and educate our children.”

8.2 Views of business

There were 28 submissions received from businesses not directly involved with the waste and

resource recovery sectors. Business submissions generally agreed that businesses need to focus on

reducing waste. They commented that regulatory tools and cost incentives such as the waste levy

and product stewardship could help with motivating businesses to reduce waste. This corresponded

with comments suggesting businesses may not separate rubbish from recycling as it is easier or

cheaper to put rubbish and recycling in the skip bin to landfill.

“This is the perfect way to go. With the waste itself being a huge issue for businesses, council support

will help encourage them to reduce their waste.”

There were several comments about the need for education for businesses and the public, including

simple key messages on how to reduce and recycle. “We struggle with public literacy being so low.

We have events with recycling centres and the public that are so appalling that everything has to go

into a container for landfill because it is so mixed….”

Several business submitters showed support for product stewardship and responsibility for end-of-

life solutions during product design and development. Many submitters mentioned product

stewardship schemes working overseas and those countries having higher recycling rates and lower

litter issues. There were also comments stating the best option is reduce or eliminate products at

source that cannot be recycled.

There was a comment about the need for regulation to stem the import of sub-quality products

designed for a short life span as they are non-repairable.

There was some support for an increase of the waste levy. “We also support Council asking central

government for an increase in the Waste Levy beyond $10 per tonne provided the revenue is ‘ring

fenced’ to provide the necessary infrastructure to ensure waste is diverted from landfills and that any

increase is phased in over a well signalled time period.”

One business voiced concern over the economic implications of a waste levy on cleanfill and

managed fill. The business stated that the beneficial re-use of inert materials should not attract a

financial penalty, and that any increase in the levy should be restricted to landfills.

Construction and demolition (C&D) waste was mentioned by several submitters, and the need for

developers to be responsible for the waste they produce and import.

“Business owners, developers and construction companies must be accountable for the landfill waste

they produce. The developer should be considering how much waste is being produced by cutting

cost and importing building products that are over packaged. The developer should be taking notes

on how many tonnes of landfill the building is producing.”

Support was voiced for the need for the plastic recycling industry to grow in New Zealand.

Several submitters requested a service to collect and process compostable packaging, potentially in

the proposed food scraps collection. “On average we pay three to four times more than our

competitors to offer a compostable packaging option - we do this as we believe it is important to

offer viable alternatives to soft plastics and mixed grade plastic/foil that would otherwise go to

62

27

landfill. We believe a collaborative approach between council and business is key in changing habits

and creating new consumer habits that encourage composting at home or via council collections.”

Submitters commented on the benefits of Community Recycling Centres (CRC) that engage people

around waste issues, and are convenient and accessible. Other comments supported the centres

taking a wide range of items.

A small number of submitters raised concerns over CRCs dealing with hazardous waste.

A small number of business submitters disagreed with more Community Recycling Centres as the

private industry and charitable organisations already recycle some items.

One business raised concerns that reducing the frequency of collections will increase illegal dumping

in parks, shopping centre rubbish bins and private property.

Long form submissions were received from Progressive Enterprises and Housing NZ Corporation.

Progressive Enterprises was generally supportive of the draft WMMP. Key points that they

submitted include a recommendation that “When advocating for an increased waste levy that the

Auckland Council should consider advocating for incremental levy increases over a period of years to

allow opportunity for alternate diversion and end of life options and infrastructure to be developed

and implemented.” They also advocate for an outright ban on single use plastic carrier bags.

Housing NZ Corporation generally support the strategic direction of the draft WMMP. However,

they are opposed to a change from weekly to fortnightly refuse collection, due to the potential for

H&S issues with tenants with special needs and requirements which rely heavily on the service.

They also request that they be consulted early about introduction of proposed initiatives that affect

their assets and tenants.

8.3 Views of community organisations

Forty submissions were received from community organisations. These were mostly themed around

supporting initiatives that result in outcomes that enable community groups to own, operate and be

involved in designing and delivering waste solutions.

Overwhelmingly responses agreed the real gains in waste minimisation sit with the commercial

sector and stated it was fair that business must be made to do their share to reduce waste. Most

supported business being given more actual legislated responsibility for waste minimisation and

reduction in consumption of resources. Groups felt local government was not best placed to make

the necessary level of change and indicated central government must play a stronger role, and the

private sector itself was well-placed to create and manage solutions.

Most community organisation submitters felt that commercial organic waste and, to some degree,

C&D waste were lower-hanging fruit than the overuse of plastics, which continues to be

problematic. Raising the landfill levy and giving industry the same waste minimisation

responsibilities as local authorities under the Waste Minimisation Act 2008 was supported by

approximately half of the community submissions.

63

28

Several community organisations commented on the food scraps service, with a diverse range of

views. Transition Towns Point Chevalier supported a network of local composting facilities instead

of a large industrial plant because of the opportunities for local enterprise to get involved in building

sustainable, connected communities. Grey Lynn 2030 and Mahurangi Waste Busters recognised that

the service needs to meet the needs of the wider public. There was generally support for a gradual

shift to user-pays for all waste streams to enable those who do home compost to benefit.

All community organisations supported Community Recycling Centres. Most mentioned the positive

outcomes as a result of bringing community together and providing education, training, and job

opportunities. Most comments also mentioned that there needs to be more than 12 CRCs, to

ensure they are conveniently located and people actually use them.

There was strong support for a container deposit scheme in the community organisation

submissions, however some submitters felt a different strategy was needed to deal with problematic

plastic waste that has a limited recycling lifespan. Many submitters wanted the scheme to be led at

a local/community level.

Only three groups, Transition Towns Point Chevalier, Sustainable North Trust and Mahurangi

Wastebusters Trust, discussed the features of product stewardship more broadly and advocated for

the management of other consumer goods such as electronics, batteries, tyres, treated wood,

whiteware and nappies using a Product Stewardship approach.

Onetangi Beach Ratepayers Association was the only community group to disagree with a container

deposit scheme saying they “just don’t think it would work”.

Many community organisations were not familiar enough with the Hauraki Gulf Islands Plan to

comment. Those who did comment supported local solutions that respond to the unique features of

the Gulf Islands such as addressing the freight and transport barriers and developing on-island

solutions.

A not-for-profit catering organisation submitted: “We need food safety rules that not only allow but

encourage us to place food into people's washed containers. I know this is a massive hygiene and

insurance issue but we need industrial and legal solutions now! We are having a permanent wash

against waste station at our food truck but the cost and time has to be covered by our sales which

puts strain upon us. We need cheaper access to the food control plan and an even more simplified

plan.”

A number of community organisations commented about the Zero Waste Vision, strongly supporting

the targets set by the WMMP, and calling for more work to be done higher up the waste hierarchy to

avoid and reuse waste rather than recycle it.

Increased waste minimisation education was called for, including more highly visible awareness

programs that are multi-lingual and delivered through multiple media channels.

8.4 Views of waste and resource recovery sector

As shown in Table 2, there were 22 submissions classified as being from the waste and resource

recovery sector. This compares to 60 in the 2011 draft WMMP consultation process.

The submissions contained a range of views, with only product stewardship receiving widespread

support. Waste Management NZ Ltd, one of the largest waste company that owns waste

infrastructure and provides services, strongly disagreed with all of the proposals in the draft WMMP,

other than product stewardship. EnviroWaste Services Ltd, another large waste company that owns

waste infrastructure and provides services, did not disagree with any of the proposals and indicated

support for product stewardship and reducing the three priority commercial waste streams.

Many of the small to medium size waste companies focused their submissions on their own specific

business interests. Other than Northland Waste Ltd, which disagreed with most of the initiatives

proposed in the draft WMMP, the smaller waste and resource recovery organisations generally

supported or were neutral about all of the proposals. Several of the organisations expressed

interest in working with council on achieving the objectives of the draft WMMP.

Waste Management NZ Ltd and Northland Waste Ltd expressed opposition to many aspects of the

draft WMMP. Waste Management stated concerns over council taking a more active role in the

commercial waste sector, and questioned whether this breached New Zealand competition law.

Waste Management NZ Ltd was concerned that a number of assumptions in the draft WMMP are

based on incorrect information, or are not supported by any cost/benefit analysis. They accept that

this is due, in part, to the fact that not all of the private waste industry is willing to share

commercially sensitive data with council due to the potential that council could use this information

to achieve a competitive advantage.

Waste Management acknowledge Community Recycling Centres have been useful in repurposing

waste items from inorganic collections. However, “In our view Auckland is already appropriately

serviced by private resource recovery and recycling centres.”

Waste Management support the application of the waste levy to all disposal sites in a two-stage

process by first implementing it universally across the sector and then progressively increasing it

over time to allow industry to invest and adjust.

With regards to council proposing to enter the Rodney kerbside market, Northland Waste states

“This is an incredibly alarming reality for any business faced with the knowledge that not only will

council enter a market that is working currently to compete with the private sector under the veil of

‘standardisation’, but to also be told that it will do this by subsidised rates funding if it is not market

competitive”.

They made several mentions of Section 17A of the Local Government Act 2002 in their submission,

questioning many of the proposed activities in the draft WMMP on the basis of their alignment (or

lack thereof) with Section 17A. Section 17A requires local authorities to “review the cost-

effectiveness of current arrangements for meeting the needs of communities within its district”.

65

Northland Waste is also opposed to a food waste collection that does not have an opt-out option for

residents. Northland Waste strongly disagrees with the expansion of the Resource Recovery

Network, due to what they consider unfair and possibly illegal procurement processes to secure

operators for the resource recovery sites, which they believe could be operated more efficiently and

effectively by the private sector.

EnviroWaste was supportive of council addressing priority commercial waste streams and continuing

a transition to consistent kerbside waste and recycling systems. EnviroWaste also expressed their

support for an extension of the waste levy to all classes of landfills and the introduction of product

stewardship, particularly for tyres and lithium ion batteries.

Green Gorilla are supportive of council regulation and education and support an increase in the

landfill levy to $50/tonne over five years to encourage the commercial sector to embrace landfill

diversion. They also strongly agree with the three priority waste streams.

OJI Fibre Solutions request a greater focus be given to the cost/benefit analysis of council’s past and

proposed waste minimisation activities. They believe council expenditure should be restricted to

activities where there is a clear public good and no commercial interest in the supply of services.

They do not support an increase in the waste levy, unless bona fide recycling operations be exempt

or rebated levies on solid waste generated from the reprocessing of materials on a commercial basis.

OJI request that council focus on maintaining or improving the value of collected recyclable

materials, to eliminate or minimise the risk of cross-contamination. They recommend this be

achieved by phasing out MRF-based recycling and encouraging commercial source-separated

collections.

The Scrap Metal Recycling Association of New Zealand were generally supportive of the draft

WMMP. They expressed concerns that an increase in the waste levy would make the recycling of

some materials uneconomical and recommended that “materials generated through a recycling

process, such as shredder floc and granulator waste, should be exempted from any increases to the

levy”.

They are supportive of product stewardship, including for rubber tyres and aluminium cans, however

concern was expressed over the potential cost of product stewardship for certain products such as

household alkaline batteries, and it was recommended that the economic implications of the Basel

Convention be thoroughly explored. They oppose any product stewardship initiative that competes

with privately owned businesses. They offered their assistance in creating effective schemes to

collect data on metal exports.

EcoStock Supplies Limited and the Bioenergy Association support council expanding its waste

minimisation efforts to include commercial and business waste, and believe a regulatory approach is

required, particularly with regards to organics. They suggest council create and enforce bylaws to

require source separation of food waste, support organic recovery infrastructure and eventually ban

organics from landfills. EcoStock also request clear signals from council on procurement and

investment to give investors and private operators confidence.

66

The Bioenergy Association believe the draft WMMP misses the waste-to-energy opportunities

offered by anaerobic digesters. The Association suggests that anaerobic digestion is the best

method for treating organic waste residues and offer their assistance to investigate anaerobic

digestion as a tool to achieve zero waste to landfill.

Low Impact strongly agree with the draft WMMP, but believe council should re-examine kerbside

food scrap collections due to recent changes in the political and economic landscape. They request

support from council to increase use of their household vermicomposting system, Hungry Bins, in

Auckland, and believe the green waste industry has been protected in designing the food waste

collection, but that Low Impact hasn’t.

Croxley Recycling are supportive of product stewardship. “Product Stewardships are an accepted

part of business in many other countries. Without their implementation NZ will continue to drift

along and lurch from one missed opportunity to the next. Product Stewardship needs to be driven by

both Local & Central Government. Along with Product Stewardship there needs to be licencing of

recyclers and auditing against appropriate AS/NZS standards.”

Kiwi Cleaning Rag Limited are concerned that an increase in the waste levy will cripple their recycling

industry. They also disagree with the expansion of the CRC network “…in our industry of clothing

recycling there are over 500 jobs (private company) that the current WMMP puts at risk. Hundreds of

tons are exported. How are we expected to compete with recycling centres that pay token rents, are

subsidized and do not pay commercial landfill rates…”

Kiwi Cleaning Rag strongly disagreed with plans for food scrap collections, stating that home

composting is more environmentally friendly, and that home composters should not bear the cost of

a collection service they do not require.

Interwaste Ltd is a nationwide provider of waste collection, treatment, and disposal services to the

quarantine and medical waste sectors. Interwaste identifies a number of specific waste

management trends with significant health and safety impacts that are not addressed by the draft

WMMP and recommends that the household hazardous waste strategy, which is an action of the

draft WMMP, specifically addresses household medical waste, sharps and syringes, pharmaceuticals,

mercury from fluorescent tubes, and sanitary waste.

8.4.1 Views of Community Recycling Centres

Submissions were received from several organisations currently, or previously, associated with

Community Recycling Centres. These organisations include: Waiuku Zero Waste, Global Action Plan

Oceania, MPHS Community Trust, Island Waste Collective, Waiheke Resource Trust, Zero Waste

Network , Sustainable North Trust, and Helensville Community Recycling Centre.

The organisations that answered the questions in the online submission form either agreed or

strongly agreed with all of them (one submitter appeared to incorrectly enter “Strongly disagree”

when the comments clearly agreed with the proposal). All of the organisations prioritised “Creating

jobs in resource recovery and processing industries” as an important outcome of the draft WMMP.

Two of the organisations focused their responses on Waiheke Island issues.

67

Page 68: WASTE MANAGEMENT AND MINIMISATION PLAN … · notification letter. Only members of the hearing panel can ask questions about submissions or evidence. ... The panel will then make

32

The Island Waste Collective considers that: “Waiheke needs to have a fully community operated

waste facility operating from the existing transfer station as a resource recovery park. IF all waste on

island is managed by a local community group (like island waste collective) then waste minimisation

is incentivised and waste stays on island as a resource and savings can be made to ensure ratepayers

and council don’t carry full burden of cost for businesses and 30,000 visitors a year.”

With regards to the draft WMMP assertion that council only has direct influence over 20 per cent of

the waste stream, Waiheke Resources Trust stated that “On Waiheke, council has control over 100%

of the waste stream as it manages the only waste facility on the island we need to be clear on this as

this statement is not a true reflection of Waiheke (or Great Barrier).”

Replying on the same assertion, Global Action Plan Oceania commented that focusing on business

and commercial waste “is key to success, without tackling business waste a target of zero waste by

2040 is not achievable. … key to success is understanding businesses and their waste and how to gain

support within a business for transformational change. A specific scheme designed by professionals

and the industry together will work best”.

With regards to construction and business waste, Global Action Plan Oceania stated “C&D waste can

be solved with early engagement, focus on regulatory solutions like unitary plan and RMA. when

waste is created it’s too late”.

Sustainable North Trust “strongly agrees with the directive to tackle the 80% of waste that comes

from businesses and commercial activities. Commercial waste is not only the largest percentage of

materials going to landfill but it is increasing. SNT strongly believes addressing commercial waste is

important because all sectors of NZ need to take responsibility for their waste. SNT believe the

legislation needs to change to spread the responsibility from local government to importers,

manufacturers, business, industry and the waste industry itself”.

Zero Waste Network took a broad view of some of the issues: “The focus of the 2012 plan limits the

Council's ability to achieve zero waste. Effective waste reduction requires a whole system approach

that needs to be backed with practical action and clear audit trails.”

Zero Waste Network also commented on some specific issues: “We are very supportive of a renewed

focus on developing a strategy for household hazardous items. We receive a high volume of calls

from residents wanting information and better disposal options for things they know are hazardous -

particularly batteries, chemical/ paint containers and lightbulbs.”

8.5 Views of industry associations

Submissions were received from a range of industry associations, including business associations and

sector-specific associations. Industry associations directly related to the waste and resource

recovery sector are included in section 8.4.

The Panmure Business Association commented that many smaller businesses do not understand

how to dispose of their waste and do not understand the concept of separating out their recycling.

AKBID (Business Improvement Districts of Auckland) stated the business improvement district model

is an excellent way for council to partner with the commercial sector to find ways to reduce and

68

divert waste from landfills, and asked that council use the Waste Minimisation and Innovation Fund

to partner with BIDs and business sectors to maintain and enhance these waste minimisation

initiatives.

Heart of the City stated “We also support council asking central government to introduce a container

deposit scheme for plastic/glass bottles and cans, and product stewardship schemes for hard to

dispose products like tyres and e-waste.”

The Sustainable Business Network (SBN) supports an increase in the waste levy and states that this

has wide support from their membership. They strongly support partnering with industry to identify

alternatives to landfill, and support promoting best practice and celebrating business success.

With regards to construction and demolition (C&D) waste, the SBN recommends working with the

construction and demolition sector to determine what research and support is required and looking

at innovation and technology to support the industry, including a waste brokering service. They also

suggest waste minimisation plans be required for new developments. Other issues mentioned

include the importance of council procurement in promoting waste minimisation, and the

importance of providing funding through the Waste Minimisation and Innovation Fund for projects

that accelerate NZ towards becoming a circular economy.

The Packaging Forum was supportive of the draft WMMP with the exception of the container

deposit scheme. Having commissioned a national litter survey, they assert that beverage containers

are not a significant litter problem in New Zealand.

The Motor Trade Association (MTA) supports the draft WMMP, and strongly supports a focus on

organic waste, the elimination or responsible recycling of single use plastics, and product

stewardship.

The Packaging Council of NZ is critical of the draft WMMP and believes council has missed the

opportunity to advance its thinking on circular economy concepts. Their submission also criticizes

the lack of reference to the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

They question whether cost/benefit analyses have been undertaken to support council focusing on

waste minimisation in the commercial sector and are concerned this will increase costs for

Auckland’s ratepayers.

The Packaging Council of NZ agree that improvements could be made to the waste levy. They

suggest that mandatory product stewardship schemes should be considered, and are supportive of

the development of a Resource Recovery Infrastructure Plan but suggest that this should be part of a

national strategic plan.

The Employers and Manufacturers Association don’t support an increase in the waste levy and are

concerned about the lack of a “quantified analysis of the full costs” of the draft WMMP.

Key comments and requests received on pro forma submissions include the following:

EcoMatters Trust support:

o A food waste collection in Auckland, a short-term targeted rate to pay for the initial

coordination of food waste management, but would like a pay-as-you-throw food waste

collection within five years.

o Investment into decentralised community composting hubs as the primary way to

manage food waste in Auckland, with community garden facilitators funded to support

composting.

o Auckland to be Zero Waste by 2040.

o Mandatory product stewardship schemes for e-waste, batteries, tyres and packaging.

o A non-commercial bottle deposit scheme for beverage containers, where proceeds go

into recycling education.

o A gradual increase in the landfill waste levy from $10/tonne to $140/tonne.

o Completion of the Resource Recovery Network so that Community Recycling Centres

across Auckland can divert useful inorganic resources from landfill. I would like to see

them become community composting hubs too.

Kaitiaki of Newton Reserve

o The Hauraki Gulf is unique and it is important to get it right on Waiheke Island or else

marine environment becomes even more polluted.

o Our situation as island is unique because we have always dealt with the entire waste

stream.

o We face a natural tariff barrier in freight, which really limits our options. We just have to

be smarter with on island solutions.

o Our community has proven time and time again that it really cares about this issue and

wants a satisfactory answer, the thousands of submissions to the Royal Commission on

the governance of Auckland demanding local control of our waste stream is evidence of

this”

The Devonport Community Recycling Centre:

o Request “Continued support and development of the Devonport Community Recycling

Centre and its facilities to the local community”

Auckland Ratepayers’ Alliance pro forma

council’s 10-year Budget 2018-2028 and the draft WMMP. One submission was to

“submit on the Council’s failure to tackle wasteful spending and the plan to break pre-

election promises on rates”. The second submission was to “submit against the proposed

regional fuel tax” and the third to “submit on the proposed Auckland-wide waste

management system which will see refuse collection halved for most Aucklanders”.

o The three pro formas were received from 4,605 unique individuals, with most individuals

submitting more than one of the submissions. The pro formas and the issues addressed

are shown below, with issues relating to the draft WMMP being underlined.

o 2,293 ARA pro formas were submitted that address:

Wasteful spending and limiting rates to no more than 2%

9.2 Informal submissions

9.2.1 Submissions with no contact details supplied

There were 98 informal submissions that were submitted on the standard form, but for which no

contact details were supplied. The submissions are analysed, by question, below.

Q1 – Waste Outcomes

All 98 submissions responded to this question. The greatest areas of support were: delivering value

for Auckland ratepayers (23), creating tidy public places (22), reducing waste to landfill (18) and

reducing environmental and marine pollution (20).

Q2 – Business and commercial waste

The majority of submitters agreed or strongly agreed with trying to tackle the 80 per cent of

business and commercial waste that is contributing to high volumes to landfill. Specific comments

were made around businesses having the financial resources to manage their waste better, and so

should take more responsibility.

Q3 – Focusing on commercial organics, plastic and construction and demolition

The majority of submitters agreed or strongly agreed with focusing on the three significant waste

streams, and specific comments were made about working with architects to design out waste

during the building design phase, identifying opportunities for construction and demolition waste to

be reused, making industry responsible for the waste they produce, and banning polystyrene from

packaging. One submitter said council should first continue to work on getting domestic waste

systems right.

Q4 – Community Recycling Centres

The majority (31) of submitters agreed or strongly agreed with the creation of Community Recycling

Centres while four disagreed or strongly disagreed. Some of the submitters who commented called

for council to be more visible in publicising the CRCs, and mentioned the opportunities to provide

repair stations, educate people, enhance recycling, and provide bargains for people in the

community. A few comments called for the old inorganics service to be reinstated.

Q5 – Product Stewardship

There was strong support for product stewardship, although all comments referred specifically to a

container deposit scheme. Most who commented referenced an awareness of the success of the

program in South Australia. Three submissions disagreed or strongly disagreed with a container

deposit scheme.

Q6 – Hauraki Gulf Islands

Half of the submitters (20) who answered the HGI question said they either didn’t know enough

about the topic to comment, or were neutral on the approach outlined in the HGI Plan. Five agreed

and six disagreed. Comments included that council should take care of the Gulf Islands because they

are unique and their requirements are different from the rest of Auckland.

Q7 – Other comments

The 14 further comments all generally concurred with the wider submissions.

9.2.2 Have Your Say and Drop-in events

Informal feedback received on the waste plan at akhaveyoursay and Drop-in events were generally

similar to formal submissions. Of the 449 comments recorded the following broad themes emerged:

Some did not want to pay for the food scraps collection, as they compost at home. There

was also a preference for a decentralized community-composting solution.

There were a number of comments regarding waste on Waiheke Island, with a strong

preference for a local on-island solution. Some concern was expressed regarding how

council should manage waste from boat users.

Others commented on the need for more waste education, especially in schools.

Plastics and plastic packaging was cited as a real issue. Feedback centred around the need

for businesses to do more to reduce packaging, or council to regulate plastics and plastic

packaging.

Illegal dumping and litter issues were common concerns, often specific to a particular

location, e.g. a local park. There were also a number of comments about for the need for

better enforcement and larger fines for dumpers.

9.2.3 Videos

The five video submission received are described in section 8.1.

9.2.4 Drawings

Ninety-one drawings were submitted by school children. The topics covered by the drawings are

described below.

Bins

The drawings received stated they wanted more compost bins and more worm bins. Some drawings talked about reusing the refuse bins.

Plastics

Many drawings stated that all new plastic production should be stopped. Many of the drawings talked about taking reusable bags shopping. Using biodegradable bags and compostable packaging (made of potato or cardboard) was also mentioned. Two drawings said that if you do use plastic bags, to wash and reuse them and/or plastics could be donated to schools to make art. A few drawings stated there should be a charge on bags or a ban to stop using them altogether.

Organics

Some drawings mentioned that the food scraps collection was coming and that people should use it.

Litter

Some drawings said it is important not to litter and to pick up litter on the beach. It was mentioned that signs about 'putting litter in the bin' could be used. It was suggested that people doing community service should pick up litter or people should be paid to pick up rubbish of the roads

Other

Some drawings stated that old toys, blankets and clothes should be donated or given to the homeless.

“Auckland is full of waste. Just remember that the time has come to put on our waste free thinking hats. Reuse plastic bags at the shop or supermarket, take your shopping home in a reusable bag or basket. Recycle aluminium cans and all the metal tins, apple cores and banana peels go in the compost bins. Put cardboard and paper in the recycling bin or box. In the clothing bin goes the old t-shirts and socks.”

“Zero waste story: Hello people of NZ. Plastic is killing animals and when we go fishing and we catch fish with plastic in them, we're going to end up eating plastic. It is making me lose my mind. So you can see I want to stop it and I don't know if this is already invented? But instead of metal detector we could make a plastic detector so we can catch lots of plastic and sort it into the right bins. The end.”

“We have to make sure recycling factories are not putting bad smoke into the air.”

“Hey world, stop using plastic. Why? Soft plastic is drilled from the earth and soon there will be no more oil left! And remember to clean your recycling before you put it in the bin. My idea of ideal home is anyone who does not care about cleaning and putting rubbish in the correct bin we install a little alarm on the bins. And if the item that goes in the recycling bin that has not been cleaned the alarm will go off and will not stop until it has been cleaned, the alarm will go off if wrong thing goes in the wrong bin.”

“No more taxes for waste collection”

“Full lifecycle waste management, packaging, sale, recycling, education and processing locally -

people take responsibility for their own behaviours and environment”

“The economics of all proposals”

“Adherence to waste hierarchy, and link it to spending, ie spend most on avoidance and not

disposal.”

“Give waste operation back to our community - it worked well before you messed with it.”

“Removal of single use plastic”

“Treating ALL SUBURBS EXACTLY the SAME. NOT as at present where some suburbs eg Manurewa

have free collection & all of North Shore & north of bridge PAY & have limiting restrictions on it. The

“While individuals have a role to play on both the creation and solutions to waste issues; the role of

corporations and industry for both of these is far greater. I strongly support a greater focus on

business and commercial activities.”

“Builders waste fills skips!!! Food retailers could compost and put fresh food in methane system.”

“Malls, commercial businesses and all food outlets have a lot of waste.”

“Everyone - businesses and individuals - need to do all possible to reduce waste (NZ is not clean).”

“80% generated by companies, they should be responsible i.e. product stewardship.”

“This is essential. It will drive behavior towards less packaging, and compostable packaging.”

“80% speaks for itself.”

“Construction waste needs a plan for resource recovery. Businesses need waste audits to help reduce

waste to landfill and given options for dealing with organic waste through commercial composting.”

“This is the bulk of the waste that goes to landfill. Not sure why the focus has been on Residential

waste rather than the 80% commercial waste?”

“When compostable waste goes in to landfill it creates a myriad of issues for now and the future. I

think nz needs to get super savvy on recycling and composting and massively reducing plastic and

textile landfill!”

“They have more access to be able to access more people. Sharing knowledge.”

“If it is good enough for us, then it should be good enough for them. Small and industrial businesses

have more wastage.”

“I see so much soft plastic waste at my work as well as other businesses going into landfill, at home I

recycle a lot but at work I can’t take that much soft plastics to the recycling bin at the supermarket as

it’s a waste of company time, if businesses had the option of more recycling options which were

easily accessible then they would recycle more.”

“Because businesses need to up their game. The level of waste generated by businesses is shameful”

“Take up less space with the rubbish so compaction also reduce amount of package materials”

“Worry on worse local neighbourhood hygiene Rate is planned to increase year after year, yet plan

appears to reduce service frequency and didn’t talk about saving cost from rate payer perspective

Does changing to Pay as you throw mean separating out garbage collection cost from council rates?

The plan Leave rate payers to become stressful in worrying about cost - pay as your throw.

Inconvenient and not worry-free system. Worry that people will abuse system eg putting rubbish in

others bin, not sorting rubbish properly, leaving rubbish inside their property for too long creating

hygiene problems for neighbourhood Current recycling bins are successful because it’s simple and

idiot proof. The proposal is going backward.”

All of the comments in this section have been chosen at random. The range of comments is not

intended to represent any particular viewpoints or be statistically representative of all comments.

“Green waste needs to be separated out from the other stuff that can be recycled. Again, this needs

to be a priority otherwise we all lose. We waste too much.”

“There is huge room for improvement on this front. Increase the landfill waste levy to business.”

“It seems the managers of construction sites are often concerned with cost, and tell their builders to

leave the rubbish as they don't want to pay them to tidy up each day. A builder at the end of our

street told me this when I asked why so much styrofoam was blowing down the street onto our

properties. We are getting stringer winds more frequently, so these materials are travelling further if

left lying around a site.”

“We need to reduce waste and the biggest parts of such a big creator of waste need to be

addressed.”

“Some waste needs to be reduced at the producer end of the chain, and this is not happening

enough. In other instances alternatives need to be found for the house wrap plastic; hay bale plastic;

food waste from the food industry and supermarkets; less use of polystyrene for packaging, etc.”

“They need to be aware and held accountable of how their processes and products are packaged,

used and disposed of. I feel a lot of waste is generated because of obsolete processes that could be

changed.”

“Consultation always good as part of the process.”

“Providing it does not impose additional costs on businesses or rate payers.”

“You should be working with the community (not big business) to compost food and organic waste in

the community in order to feed the city on scraps, which used to be the Councils goal and for

inexplicable reason appears to have been abandoned. Diverting it from landfill is secondary. Further

it is apparent that the decision has already been made to AD is outside the city after a very narrow

exchange with 2 businesses only”

“YES! Definitely agree with working with businesses to reduce waste. Definitely needed.”

“Diversion needs to be made easier and create further benefits for those who participate (financial,

reputational, etc) and avoid a financial barrier.”

“Council must emphasise ‘resource-minimisation’ also, and work actively with waste processors and

users to increase the conversion and take up of recycled waste to marketable products. (For

example, NZTA must start substituting crushed materials for aggregates in roading as is done

overseas.)”

“Council must lobby government to amend the Waste Minimisation Act to give industry the same

responsibility as local authorities ‘to promote effective and efficient waste management’. This must

include minimising the use of plastic packaging by NZ-based goods producers and also considering

imported goods.”

“Enforce waste sorting and make people convert their waste.”

“We need every home and business to make a conscious informed effort to educate the family on

how to do this better’

“But bring back kerb side inorganic collection”

“Depends where they are located. Not near our green spaces or homes. Prevent smells”

“People need to have a place nearby to get rid of recyclable items.”

“Need much more than 12. At least 1 per Local Board area minimum. Optimistically 4 per Local Board

area so more accessible.”

“As a community we need to think about out consumption.’

“Run and operated by locals/job ops.”

“Yes - keeps the employment and approach local and known.”

“It needs to be easy for people or they won't be bothered. Encourage use of social media for people

to pass on unwanted goods locally as well, I see it on our local Facebook page. Maybe communal

collection of unwanted goods to go to a depot as well, not everyone has transport or the right sort of

vehicle to drop thins off. Maybe an initiative for socially minded groups such as Lions”

“Reusing and recycling items no longer needed creates less waste.”

“North Shore had a recycling plant as part of the transfer station 20 plus years ago. This was very

successful but knee jerk clap trap about Health & Safety closed it down. North Shore urgently need a

free drop of centre”

“For a city the size of Auckland it is a drop in the bucket. Also, I live here and have never heard of

their existence, despite googling at various times for ways to get good of good quality 'stuff'”

“We need to have at least 21 Recycling centres (1 per local board) and more where geography and

local support call for them. Council must work with local community organisations to support the

ongoing operation of the centres - 20 years ago there was a good locally supported recycling centre

on Waiheke which Council closed! Follow other cities.”

“Cost of recycling goods which are not suitable for the recycling bin is prohibitive. The inorganic

waste months were great. It is much more environmentally friendly to reuse than recycle!”

“Re-using is win-win but recycling should not be seen as an excuse to keep producing one use

packaging in glass or plastic.”

“This is great and will perhaps reduce people dumping waste.”

“We need more so people stop dumping there unwanted household goods down country roads, it's

so bad in Clevedon and Ardmore.”

All of the comments in this section have been chosen at random. The range of comments is not

“Other countries are already doing this and i can't see why we shouldn't. It is not difficult to manage

and can encourage reduced waste.”

“This idea will definitely encourage people to dispose of item responsibly so it doesn’t end up in our

waterways, but will it encourage them to reuse rather than keep buying? It might encourage more

spending on plastic items rather than encourage people to change their lifestyle.”

“This makes the producers of product to be more responsible for what they produce, sell and profit

from and purchasers think twice.”

“Would help with public space cleanliness.”

“This scheme is a no-brainer, having been successful in other countries for decades. This is another

area where collaboration with commercial sector will be vital to get buy-in from producers. “

“Bottled water is a curse”

“This is SUCH a good idea. It's been proven to reduce waste and litter in cities all over the world. Let's

do this already!”

“Look at Sweden Denmark they have machines that encourage people to recycle. Even in Hong Kong

their are people that collect cans so that they can earn money for recycle.”

“Great, in Holland you take these items back to the supermarket and post clean reusable containers

or recyclable ones into a hole at back, a receipt is printed out so you can use it at the checkout to

receive a discount, this works extremely well.”

“Good idea also to tax non- biodegradable packaging to stop the problem before it starts. This is next

best idea.”

“It might encourage producers to come up with greener packaging choices in the first place.”

“Though not sure of the impact on current recycling of drink containers through recycling bins - i.e.

will there be unintended consequences such as people going through recycling bins where residents

choose to use their bin rather than collecting the refundable deposits themselves?”

“I've seen how well this works in various parts of the United States. It does, sometimes, encourage

dumpster divers who are looking to make a bit of pocket money, but it keeps this type of waste out of

landfills and off the streets/beaches”

“Government should set an example”

“I'd prefer the focus to firstly be on stopping businesses from using unsustainable packaging (i.e. I've

heard plastic can only be recycled a finite number of times, so isn't really ideal even if it can be

recycled), but I guess encouraging people to dispose of the packaging responsibly is the next best

thing.”

“Haven't looked at it but I am sure its ok. I would support more community run and owned waste

strategies as I know Waiheke used to run a good system some time in the past but was not supported

by council. I think the local board is usually pretty good at reflecting their community needs.”

“Don't know enough about it”

“The rubbish that is going into the oceans and [cannot read] up the world is staggering. Minimizing

pollution in this area can START and continue with MOTIVATION & EDUCATION”

“These are fragile and generally unspoilt environments, lets keep them that way.”

“'Tikapa-Moana Hauraki Gulf Islands Draft Waste Plan' : it's a very long name for a plan, and my life

experience proves me that more long the name is for a plan, less effective it is...!”

“The area needs a specialized plan due to its unique environment.”

“Waste management should be fitted to the community it is taking place in. This includes areas of

poverty where people cannot take to the dump!”

“This is a solid plan. Many parts could be used in Rodney, Auckland”

“Smaller islands need solutions that work for locals.”

“Yes it is unique and it is important to get it right on Waiheke Island or else marine environment

becomes even more polluted. 1 - Our situation as island is unique because we have always dealt with

the entire waste stream. 2 - we face a natural tariff barrier in freight, which really limits our options.

We just have to be smarter with on island solutions. 3 - our community has proven time and time

again that it really cares about this issues and wants a satisfactory answer, the thousands of

submissions to the Royal Commission on the governance of Auckland demanding local control of our

waste stream is evidence of this”

“We have not read this plan.”

“Keep Oirkai, keep Tangaroa free of plastic and waste.”

“This should be led and implemented by the respective islanders”

“As long as community is part of the solution and not seen as a small part player. Waiheke needs to

lead by example again as it has done in the past. Island waste collective are capable of running all

waste operations on Waiheke and maximising diversion from landfill.”

“Not sure. Waiheke island is an island but in the suburban Auckland areas people don't take so much

pride in most areas.”

“These plans are essential to these islands as they are safe havens for many species of plant and

animal and are also pest free. A long term plan is important in order to maintain a beautiful natural

habitat for our animals and plants as well as ourselves and our environment.”

Appendix 13 - Question 7 - Submitters’ comments

All of the comments in this section have been chosen at random. The range of comments is not

intended to represent any particular viewpoints or be statistically representative of all comments.

“We use a hungry bin for the vast majority of our food waste. We do not agree that all householders

should pay for a separate service when so many (up to 30%) already use compost/worm farms to

deal with their food waste.”

“I already compost my food waste so don't want to pay extra for a new food waste service that I

don't need.”

“Increased public place recycling. Public place recycling in Belmart please”

“There needs to be food/green bin: grass etc., illegal dumping of grass is constant.”

“Prioritize Māori Action Plan”

“Carry on taking bags from kerbside, not just bins. Tonnage of waste going to landfill should cost

hundreds of dollars. 2027 target should be 75% diversion. Let's be bold. Incentives for those recycling

all their organic/kitchen waste.”

“New plastic bins for households perhaps too big. We may look at sharing a bin with neighbours (one

small full bin each week).

“Future proofing for the good of New Zealand and hopefully becoming a world leader and example of

economical and effective waste reduction.”

“I want to see a non-commercial bottle deposit scheme for beverage containers, where proceeds go

into recycling education.”

“Yes. I object to charging every household $67 for food waste when many households already handle

this themselves (and have done so for many years). So many households have worm farms, compost

bins, bokashi buckets or even animals that dispose of the waste and also generate fertiliser etc. for

their own gardens. If introducing this kind of fee, then it needs to be a pay as you go service/opt in.

Otherwise you're basically encouraging people to stop doing what they are currently doing and

manage this themselves. Plus you won't get a clean 'food only' collection, there will be wrappers,

stickers, sticks etc. all dumped in which will make the disposal of it problematic and uneconomical. At

least people who process food waste themselves take care of what goes in their Worm farm etc.”

“The waste management policy is seriously flawed. Rather than try to force everyone to a zero waste

policy, council needs to make it free and easy. Educate and encourage people to reduce waste and

recycle, indeed yes. Why? Look at the dumping of rubbish wherever people think they can do it -

overseas studies show that this approach does not work, costs thousands to clean up the mess, and is

bad for the environment. In fact in cases I have read, where the policy making waste collection

expensive was reversed and even "free", the city was cleaned up in no time.”

“I support a short-term targeted rate to pay for the initial coordination of food waste management,

but would like a pay-as-you-throw food waste collection within five years.”

“I oppose the move to fortnightly rubbish collection. We moved to small rubbish bins and now we

have rubbish bags being dumped everywhere. This will only get worse with fortnightly collection. It is

absolutely ridiculous that this is being suggested. In South Auckland households are much larger and

so have more rubbish and they can least afford paying for more rubbish bins. So people will just

dump stuff in parks.”

“Greenwaste and food waste needs to be composted. It should never end up in the landfill. It is

unacceptable that it is so difficult to recycle other products that cannot be recycled. Can we look at

options such as bermside composting? Communal compost bins. Food waste is only waste if it ends

up in landfill and people need to know this. We should not pay to have food waste and green waste

put in a landfill as it does not belong there. We need to recycle soft plastic packaging as taking it to

the warehouse once a week is excessive. My rubbish bin only goes out once every 3 weeks since we

have been recycling soft plastic voluntarily. There are 5 people using the same bin. We only use 3

compost bins which also covers all of our green waste. It never smells and we never look after it.

Business should be required to compost and expecting them to do so voluntarily is ridiculous.”

“Plastic bags. I would love to see here what they do in the UK where people are charged 5p for every

single use plastic bag they buy, not just from the big supermarket chains but the gift shop and the

dairy too. Let's be the first city in NZ to put on this "tax" on EVERY single use plastic bag to stop them

being used so much.”

“I don't agree with the move to pay-as-you-throw and the targeted rate for kerbside collection of

household food scraps.”

“Require businesses to be more environmentally responsible & provide service for ratepayers”

“EVERYTHING that is not organic and biodegradable should be being recycled. We need to use

resources more wisely. Governing bodies should have a legally enforceable obligation of

responsibility toward the environment and therefore the future citizens of the world.”

“There should be support for low income earners.”

“Will this help create jobs as well?”

“Increase Waste Levy to at least $100.00”

“More education of community”

“We need to recycle soft plastics NOW. Since my household discovered that some supermarkets and

the warehouse have taken an incentive to recycle these, our house of 5 people can hardly fill the bin

once a month (obviously composting makes a big difference, too). Why on earth are we sending

these to landfill? Also we need more community compost areas, if no one is going to collect food

waste its the very least that needs to be done. Thanks!”

“I don’t feel I should have to pay more for the collection of organic/food waste as I already compost

and have a worm farm, as do many households in Auckland. I already pay per bag to have my

rubbish collected, despite urban areas having wheelie bins and they don’t have to pay extra. I recycle

far more than I dispose. Make it fair for all ratepayers please!”

“I want Auckland to be Zero Waste by 2040. It’s a smart goal in the context of climate change and

the challenges of growing landfill. I think it needs to go further to include discouraging shops using

packaging. We all need to be sustainable and work together towards a sustainable future if

humanity is going to survive the challenges of the ecological crisis we are now in.”
