About this inquiry

The bills would implement the 2020 commitment of the Commonwealth Government (through the former COAG) to ban the export of waste glass, plastics, tyres and paper. The bills would also incorporate the framework of the Product Stewardship Act 2011, and would make amendments to regulate and encourage businesses that design, manufacture and distribute products to take greater responsibility for their environmental impacts.
