Review of output achievements

Work with the waste sector on an overseas Development Assisted Programme to assist in the removal of unwanted legacy scrap metal from the Cook Islands

Achieved. During the year the Ministry removed 894 tonnes of scrap metal from the Cook Islands through an Overseas Development Assisted Programme. The ferrous metal, batteries and end-of-life cars were shipped back to New Zealand for recycling. Non-ferrous metal was sold on the international scrap metal market for recycling.
