In the earlier session a point was made about transparency. Of course the charge was made that those represented by the IWMA are motivated by profit and there is no transparency in their profits. In the part of the world in which I live, that sector is well represented. We know that at least a small number of people have accrued incredible personal wealth on the back of the waste industry. Have the witnesses anything to say on that?
