REPORT: Cabinet forms committee to follow up with issue of solid waste
The cabinet formed on Thursday a ministerial committee headed by Defense Minister Samir Moqbel, tasked with following up with the issue of dealing with solid waste.

During its session, the cabinet decided to increase the production of the power plant of al-Naameh, to reach 5 megawatts produced out of waste, and to be distributed to the neighboring towns.

The government also decided to conduct negotiations with Sukleen Company over the possibility of extending the term of the contract, with amended conditions.

An agreement was also reached during the cabinet session to pay compensations for the municipalities of the towns where landfills will be established.


The cabinet held Thursday a session at the Grand Serail, with 58 items on its agenda, including the issues of the solid waste, the high-voltage power lines in Mansourieh and billboards.

Prior to the session, Minister of Health Wael Abou Faour said that Prime Minister Tammam Salam is following up on the case of the abducted security members in Arsal.

In turn, Minister of Interior Nohad Machnouq said that the issue of the kidnapped soldiers is being kept under wraps to ensure the safe return of the troops.
