SWINDON: A special meeting of the cabinet at Swindon Council will convene this evening to discuss changes to proposals for green waste collection in the town.

Following a scrutiny committee meeting on December 11, certain changes arising from the recent consultation will now be referred back to cabinet.

The changes include an annual flat charge rate of £40 per year for those opting in to the scheme, which would cover the cost of collections. The meeting will be held in committee room 6 of the Civic Offices at 6pm.
