IN your article, "Wombles of Bolton recycle the clutter", I was interested to read the comments by Jim Cunliffe, recycling officer at Bolton Council,

that used tea bags, left-over turkey and vegetable peelings could have been put in a green bin and used to create compost.

I have a green bin and the leaflet that was given to us when the bin was new quite clearly stated that nothing from the kitchen should be put in it.

I am also told that meat in any form should never be used for composting. So which is correct?
