[[Construction and Demolition Waste]] ([[C&D Waste]]) ~~also known as [[Construction, Demolition and Excavation waste (mining waste)]] ([[CD&E Waste]])~~ is defined within Directive 2018/851 amending Directive 2008/98/EC on waste (the [[Waste Framework Directive]]) as "waste generated by construction and demolition activities".

[[Construction and Demolition Waste]] ([[C&D Waste]]) generated in the UK in 2018 was 67.8 million tonnes. It is defined within Directive 2018/851 amending Directive 2008/98/EC on waste (the [[Waste Framework Directive]]) as "waste generated by construction and demolition activities". [[Construction, Demolition and Excavation waste (mining waste)]] ([[CD&E Waste]]) includes excavation materials, which took the total [[CD&E Waste]] in the UK to 137.8 million tonnes in 2018, with a further 14.8 million tonnes of mining waste.

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 <ref>[https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/uk-waste-data UK Statistics on Waste ~~2020~~]</ref>.
