Waste Planning
Berkshire is made up of six Unitary Authorities. Due to the abolition of the County Council responsibility for preparing or reviewing waste policies, in Berkshire, is now exercised by the six Authorities jointly, through the Joint Strategic Planning Unit.
The six Berkshire Unitary Authorities are Waste Planning Authorities in their own right and are responsible for Waste Development Control and enforcement.
Current Plan
The Waste Local Plan (WLP) for Berkshire was adopted in December 1998 following a public inquiry which took place in 1995/96. It was prepared under the Town and Country Planning Act 1990 and covers the period up to 2006.

Emerging Minerals and Waste Local Development Framework
The six Unitary Authorities in Berkshire are currently producing a Joint Minerals and Waste Local Development Framework. (JMWLDF) This will replace the Waste Local Plan for Berkshire.
The JMWLDF will contain a Core Strategy which will set out the long-term spatial vision for mineral and waste development in Berkshire and the strategic policies and proposals required to deliver that vision.
Annual Monitoring Report
The Annual Monitoring Report 2008 monitors and reviews the progress made in the preparation of the Minerals and Waste Local Development Scheme (LDS) and the Local Developement Documents (LDDs).
