THE Cabinet committee on solid waste management is studying the impact of incinerators, Housing and Local Government Minister Datuk Seri Ong Ka Ting said.
He said the committee was looking into various ways to manage solid waste, besides using incinerators.
“The Cabinet committee, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak, will decide on the ways and technology to manage solid waste,” he said.
He was winding up the debate on Budget 2007 for his ministry.
Ong said the committee would look into the pros and cons of incinerators before submitting a report to the Cabinet.
“The Cabinet had approved the Solid Waste Management Bill and we hope to table it in Parliament this session,” he added.
