The high recycling rate at 65% by 2035-2038 should not be the high rate. Wales has already achieved this target and it is historically the NCC target. The 65% recycling should be the medium (or even the low) target with the high target of achieving waste reductions needed to keep within 1.5degreeC increase as the stretch/high target. Going forward the legislation on waste is going to reduce the amount of residual waste by law such that 65% by 2035 will most likely not be good enough to keep within the legislation.

Recycling scenarios for local authority collected waste, para 5.40, Table 7:
The projected recycling rates for LACW are unacceptable. The Waste Framework Directive target of 65% by 2030 should be the minimum and the plan should aim to provide recycling facilities to at least achieve this, with a higher target at least 70%.
