What it is for

Consulting services for water-supply and waste consultancy. The construction sector is a crucial industry for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in the long term. One-third of material consumption and 26% of carbon dioxide emissions come from this sector globally. The recent Circularity Gap Report: Northern Ireland highlighted agriculture and construction as Northern Ireland's most material- and emission-intensive sectors. Infrastructure, housing, and repair and maintenance are still the construction sector's most important activities in both Northern Ireland and the UK.

The objectives of this work are to: Produce reliable data estimates of the quantities, fates and composition of CDE Waste in Northern Ireland in 2023/24. This data is required to: Inform progress towards the statutory EU target Inform progress towards the Climate Change Act target. Assist with the development of appropriate policy initiatives / interventions, if and where required, to boost waste prevention, reuse, and increase recycling of these waste streams in line with circular economy ambitions. The study will include an element of primary data gathering through surveys, as well as use of existing information.
