"Introduce EPR in 2023. Subject to the outcome of the second, more detailed consultation, we will implement the necessary changes as soon as practical thereafter.
The target year for packaging EPR to come into effect is 2023- seeking powers in the Environment Bill to enable through regulations to require producers to pay the full-net-costs of dealing with packaging once it becomes waste. Continue to develop the Impact Assessment and will assess the overall impact on business of our proposed policy measures of EPR, a possible DRS for drinks containers (in England, Wales and Northern Ireland) and household and business waste collection consistency (in England)."
