Welsh Government consultation: Delivering a Deposit Return Scheme for drinks containers in Wales.
“The introduction of a DRS is an opportunity for Wales to follow international best practice by including reusable as well as single-use drinks containers. This in turn is a key opportunity for Wales to continue its progress to a more sustainable and efficient circular economy. Having reusable containers that are designed to be collected, washed and refilled multiple times is better for the environment, the economy and benefits society. It cuts down on waste, encourages better use of resources, supports new businesses and can create more green jobs in Wales.”
