Example of past questionnaire

Prior to 2004/5 the survey was conducted by local authorities completing responses to questionnaires. An example is provided below.

The request for information for the 2003/4 Municipal Waste Management Survey was issued on 25 June 2004 with an electronic mail-out to all local authorities in England, except those in Greater London. Included in the electronic mail-out was a questionnaire in Microsoft Excel format. This form was for the local authority to complete and return by e-mail to consultants Entec UK Ltd. Entec then uploaded the data into a database for validation and analysis.
