Response
This information is held
Hastings Borough Council do not purchase plastic lined coffee cups for internal or external meetings, they are made of paper and are recycled via our waste contractors. We do not use plastic cutlery but use small wooden stirrers which are biodegradable. We very rarely use outside contractors for meetings but when we do, it is usually finger foods such as sandwiches that does not require the use of plastic cutlery.
