Baroness Hayman of Ullock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 1 July 2025

Debate

Plastic Pollution

Contribution

Of course, we need to do more to ensure that less plastic ends up in incinerators. Research is not just about what you do with complex plastics but about ensuring that the plastics produced are recyclable in the first place. We should also ensure that that then happens and that they do not get dumped somewhere. The work that Defra is carrying out on the circular economy is really important and will look at exactly these sorts of issues.
