       2 Implementation progress
       2.1 Progress against targets
       This section summarises the progress achieved under the Strategy as of the end of Financial Year (FY) 2016 when
       compared to targets. Progress towards a specific 2024 target is considered to be 'on track' if the progress as at
       FY2016 equals or exceeds the corresponding 2016 target calculated in Table 1.

       Figure 1 and Figure 2 demonstrate the changes in waste generation rate, landfilled waste tonnages, and recycling
       rates against the interim targets, between FY2013 (baseline year) and FY2016 inclusive. Based on the analysis,
       the following 2024 targets are considered to be on track to be achieved:

        Municipal solid waste (MSW) recycling rate for regional centres (Figure 2)
        Commercial and Industrial (C&I) waste recycling rate (Figure 2).
       The 2024 targets for the other quantitative indicators are not on track to be achieved. In the case of the state-wide
       MSW recycling rate, there was no improvement compared to the FY2013 baseline. In the case of waste
       generation, landfilled waste, and the recycling rates for metropolitan areas and C&D waste, the performance in
       FY2016 has worsened compared to the FY2013 baseline.
