Under the [[Waste Framework Directive]] there is a target to for the [[Recovery]] of non-hazardous C&D waste of 70% by 2020, which the UK is currently meeting even taking into consideration the high level of uncertainty around the absolute tonnage figures. The large proportion of this waste is used as a [[Secondary Aggregate]] in construction. The figures for England and the UK are extracted in the table below from the [[DEFRA]] Digest for [[C&D Waste]]<ref name='ref1'/>
