Environment and Waste
The Assembly and a range of regional partners formed the Environment Partnership in June 2004. The Partnership aims to strengthen the environmental agenda at the regional level and provides a coherent regional voice and a champion for the environmental agenda. It advises on development and delivery of the environmental issues in the Regional Spatial Strategy, including waste, minerals and energy.
