Well there you go! They can't even get the colour coding to match!
In our little brown bin similar to your green bin, we are allowed and even encouraged to put cooked and uncooked kitchen waste!

we cant supposedly put cooked stuff in presumably because of vermin during composting but thats only a guess

Ere yer kant tellus that wivvoat tellin why. Wots scum on there for? Is they scum or is that there innishuls?
I think it must depend on how fast they deal with it and what exactly they do with it once you give it to them. No much of a composting expert! Maybe our lot goes to a place that is kept vermin free somehow.

Wosh yer cyclin int dish water after yer dun the dishes. Or take it wiv yer int baff wiv yer soks.I struggle to see how the householder is helping the ECO part of recycling by wasting lots of water and often "HOT-WATER" to get things clean for "recycling". There is a cost to both buying and heating my water, they want it clean they can ruddy well clean it at the recycling plant, they are making money out of recycling (don't believe anyone that tells you otherwise). Much of the ECO drive is all about pushing the costs of recovery down to the consumer, when smarter packaging would obvert much of the need in the first place. Re-usable/cyclable paper packaging rather than plastics would be a great step. ALL manufacturers and producers should be made to use recyclable only packaging. Plastics are a cancer that will NOT stop until the last drop of oil is taken from the earth. THEY (oil companies) knew exactly what they were doing, and the impact on the planet long ago. But avarice and "shareholder profits" are much more important than anything else it seems.

now we have the chickens they get the left overs
It's the initials of summat, dunno what, see it when sitting at the lights, never got out to look more closely!
Of course "scum" has no meaning in French! Just makes us laugh.
"Le maître d'ouvrage est la Scum, basée chemin de la Garonne à Toulouse, l'architecte est Jacques Escourrou de Mazamet pour une réalisation totalement novatrice. Il s'agit de créer une chaufferie et un réseau de chaleur collective au bois qui alimenteront tout le quartier, établissements publics, industriels et particuliers."
Which actually proves me a bit wrong. It does heat a whole area, public buildings, industries and private housing. but it doesn't burn rubbish in the way I described, it burns waste wood from the wood industry that surrounds the area.
Really is the best way. We love giving them to ours, miss it over here. and what the chickens don't like the donkeys usually eat. We never leave hardly any meat, the tiny bits we absolutely cannot use go to the dogs! so all that gets chucked is bones!
