Faster decision-making and a clear lead authority could have prevented the disastrous Averies waste fire which burned in Swindon for 57 days, councillors were told. And the government should be lobbied to change the law to increase council powers to inspect and regulate waste disposal sites. Members of Swindon Borough Council’s scrutiny committee received the long-awaited final report of the committee’s task group into the blaze which burned for nearly two months at the Marshgate waste and recycling site near the Greenbridge Retail Park in the summer of 2014. The report’s author, councillor Steve Weisinger, said a system of having to agree all decisions between Swindon Borough Council and the Environment Agency prevented swift action being taken against the Averies brothers Lee and David, who were storing illegal amounts of waste on the site to avoid the cost of dealing with it properly.
