Give your feedback on desposit scheme
This scheme will see customers asked to pay a small deposit when they buy drink in the likes of a bottle or can, and then get the deposit back when they return the empty container for recycling.
A public consultation was opened by the Scottish Government in June, which will run until September 25.

Zero Waste Scotland’s recycling campaigns manager Andrew Pankhurst said: “This represents a huge opportunity to improve recycling, reduce litter and create economic opportunities for Scotland at the same time, so we urge you to come along and speak to us on the day.”
