When is a green bag not 100 per cent compostable?

Having endured the change-over to fortnightly collections, my wife and I have done everything we can to co-operate with the recycling policy of the council.

Last week, our green bin was not emptied and, after three calls to the refuse department, I was told that my bin was contaminated because we had used the wrong type of bag for food waste.

The bags we have been using for the past three years are the 100 per cent compostable bags from Tesco, and up to last week our bin was emptied and we presumed these bags were acceptable.
