Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 December 2025

Debate

Producer Responsibility Obligations (Packaging and Packaging Waste) (Amendment) Regulations 2025

Contribution

Since the Government have recognised that weight-based charging distorts cost for glass, when will they bring forward proposals to fix this? Can the Minister guarantee that EPR revenues will lead to a corresponding reduction in taxpayer funding for waste services? Can he please tell us what mechanisms are in place to ensure ongoing review of this system to make sure that it is delivering value for money for taxpayers and consumers?
