WasteDataFlow is the web based system for municipal waste data reporting by UK local authorities to government. The system went live over ten years ago on 30 April 2004. If you are a local authority officer and wish to register for the site please Contact us. Members of other organisations or the public can register here to access published data. WasteDataFlow is designed for local authorities: to allow faster and more accurate data collection of municipal waste statistics, more regularly and efficiently; to enhance their local data management for reporting and strategic planning purposes; to offer them streamlined access to performance benchmarking with other authorities; and WasteDataFlow will allow government: to monitor progress towards national and local targets; to produce National Statistics on municipal waste; to provide an evidence base to guide government policy. Information entered by local authorities to the individual questions in WasteDataFlow can be downloaded by the general public. Questions are completed quarterly (annually in Scotland) and the data are made available to the public once this information has been validated by the WasteDataFlow team and the Environment Agency.
