Debate
Deposit Scheme for Drinks Containers (England and Northern Ireland) Regulations 2024Contribution
That leads me to look at the exemption for small shops, because 100 square metres is tiny and most of the 50,000 small convenience stores in this country will be caught. Regulation 35 says that “groceries retailers” will be exempt but I cannot see a definition of “groceries retailers”, so I presume that any drinks listed in Regulation 3 are groceries.
