Which of the following most accurately describes the problem?

• New rules governing lorry routeing to and from waste disposal and mineral extraction sites are being called for as planning authorities admit that thousands of their current agreements are unenforceable.

Central and local government legal advisers warn that planning agreements controlling lorry routeing between sites and the national road network do not have legal authority.

Some 3.000 routeing agreements between planners and waste disposal operators, quarry and mine owners are currently in use: now planners and the Department of Environment are searching for controls outside planning agreements which could force hauliers to use cer tain roads.
