| Minerals and Waste Development Scheme The Minerals and Waste Development Scheme (MWDS) sets out when we will be producing new plans and policies over the next three years. |

Current MWDS Following advice from Government Office West Midlands (GO-WM) and Communities and Local Government over the summer of 2007, we reviewed our process and approach. As a result a report was taken to Cabinet (PDF - 141 KB) on 15th November 2007 amending the MWDS again. In summary, the Minerals and Waste Core Strategies needed to be taken back to the spatial options stage instead of moving to Submission as previously planned. The revised MWDS (PDF - 304 KB) was brought into effect (PDF - 106 KB) on 11th December 2007. Since the MWDS was approved, there have been further delays, the reasons for which are set out in the Minerals Core Strategy and Waste Core Strategy webpages. Since the revised MWDS was approved, the Department for Communities and Local Government has written to Waste Planning Authorities advising that Waste Development Frameworks need to be produced as quickly as possible. As the Warwickshire Waste Development Framework is now a priority, it is unlikely that further consultation on the Minerals Development Framework will take place until the Waste Core Strategy has reached the Submission stage. This is unlikely to be before the summer of 2012. An indicative draft working timetable is set out below: Waste Core Strategy

Previous MWDS The original MWDS (PDF - 349 KB) was formally submitted to the GO-WM on 24th March 2005. GO-WM advised the County Council in a letter dated 14th April 2005 (PDF - 43 KB), that the First Secretary of State does not intend to issue a direction under Section 15(4) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004. A report was taken to Cabinet on 26th May 2005, at which Members resolved to bring into effect the MWDS, which formally took effect from the 9th June 2005. The Minerals and Waste Development Scheme (PDF - 349 KB) had previously been amended following approval by GO-WM and cabinet and had been brought into effect on 25th November 2005. |

The Minerals and Waste Development Scheme (Word - 1.1 MB) had been amended a second time changing the programme for the Minerals Core Strategy. The amendments have been approved by GOWM (PDF - 43 KB) and brought into effect on the 28th November 2006. |

A report was considered by Cabinet on the 22nd February 2007, amending the MWDS.
