Response to Consultation on Introducing a Deposit Return Scheme in England, Wales and Northern Ireland

This consultation requested views on the merits of introducing a Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) in England, Wales and Northern Ireland. The aim of the consultation was to ensure that, should a DRS be introduced, it will be easy for consumers to return drinks containers, leading to increased recycling rates and a reduction in littering. 

The consultation closed 13 May 2019.
