Long description: The Construction Resources & Waste Platform (CRWP) is managed by AEA and BRE, and is funded by the Business Resource Efficiency and Waste (BREW) Programme. The main priority of CRWP is to ensure the construction industry has a say in how funds are allocated to improve their ability to be resource efficient. It also aims to improve the understanding of what services and support is available to the construction industry to help it become more resource efficient. The BREW Programme is funded through revenue generated from the Landfill Tax. The development of this programme, which started in April 2005, ensures that the additional Landfill Tax will not only incentivise businesses to reduce the amount of waste they send to landfill, but will also assist them in developing ways to achieve this. This will mostly be through developing and expanding existing programmes that have already proven successful. BRE have very strong links with the construction sector, with their parent charity, BRE Trust, owned by 120+ construction industry members. AEA has a strong track record in waste management, and resource efficiency more generally, and has well-established links with other BREW partners and government departments.
