I finally settled on stretching a bin liner over the tray (cheaper than cat tray liners), then putting in a layer of paper strips from my non-crosscut shredder. This is followed by a tabloid-sized newspaper and then a thin layer of recycled paper litter on the top, as he likes to scrape the litter before and after pooping.
The poop scoop is wrapped in a small plastic bag which gets discarded when dirty - there are always plenty of these left over from food and other products. This saves having to clean the scoop. I've never had any problem putting cat poop with down the loo with a few bits of paper litter.
Old carrier bags are even cheaper to use as liners0
