For government institutions and private companies, TUC claim from them through the Ministry of Internal & Social Affairs service charge in accordance with the number of buildings or type of buildings they have. This system does not extend to private houses and therefore it is up to private houses to approach TUC and pay for the service charge. Public sen-ants are deducted a charge from their salaries to cover waste removal services with the result public service housing areas receive the most regular service - yet not as efficient and reliable as might be expected for a paid service. Waste for collection is usually left by households or institutions mostly in piles some in bins on the roadside. Many institutions use this sen-ice however there are also some which bum their rubbish or dump them at the beach or shoreline.
