As a consequence of the Government’s adoption of the Producer Responsibility for Packaging Regulation (2022:1274), extended producer responsibility for waste management of packaging will enter into force on 1 January 2023. The aim of the regulation is to reduce the amount of packaging, limit the harmful environmental impact of packaging, reduce litter, and achieve recycling targets. The regulation is aimed at ensuring that packaging waste is handled acceptably from health and environmental perspectives, and that the producers assume operational or financial responsibility for collecting and treating packaging waste.
