On 30th March 2021, Policy Connect hosted an event, entitled ‘Deposit Return Schemes: an outlook’. Participants included parliamentarians, industry leaders, as well as representatives from academia and third sector organisations. The aim of the session was to explore learnings from international Deposit Return Schemes (DRS), reflect on the approaches to the DRS across the UK nations, and provide an opportunity for attendees to share their first insights related to the recently launched DRS consultation.
The discussion was used to inform this write-up, but this was formulated solely by, and is only attributable to, Policy Connect.
