Paper (including cardboard) acquired by contract from its lawful owner is not 'waste' under the Local Government Act 1974 and the Local Government Act 2002 because it has not been abandoned by its former owner; consequently bylaws requiring licensing of collection and transportation of such contract-acquired paper are ultra vires and invalid.
