� EPR � What is Extended Producer Responsibility? � • Taking the existing legislation and ensuring it is fit for purpose, focusing on: � • Transparency � • Funding levels � • Pricing volatility � • Reduced costs for companies doing the right thing, and vice versa �

� What do we know… � • There will be a consultation released by the end of the year � • The consultation will propose 2 types of EPR; single organisation or competitive � • The system will be aiming for “full cost recovery” � • Increased accountability and enforcement � • Linking with other initiatives i.e. DRS and ‘plastic tax’ � • Point of evidence may move �

What do we believe in? � • UK wide � • Influence design choices � • Mandatory participation – “must buy”, “must sell” � • Maximise existing infrastructure � • Long-term targets � • Modulated fees �
