NO compounds have been issued to joint management bodies and management committees of high-rise residential buildings since the enforcement period for the waste segregation at source policy started on Sept 1.

Penang Island City Council (MBPP) Urban Services director Mubarak Junus said officers visited 224 high-rise schemes and 88 failed to comply with the requirements set by the council.
