HC Deb 30 January 1991 vol 184 c535W
36. Mr. Paice

To ask the Secretary of State for the Environment if he will make a statement on the progress in the introduction of recycling credits.

Mr. Baldry

My Department has commissioned a study by independent consultants on the operation of a system of recycling credits. We expect to receive their report shortly. When we have considered their advice we will consult local authorities and other interested parties on draft regulations governing the payment of these recycling credits.
