From 1 July, the next step in phasing out single-use and hard-to-recycle plastic begins. That means:
· single-use plastic produce bags, plates, bowls, and cutlery will be banned
· the sale of single-use plastic straws will be restricted
· a transition to compostable plastic produce labels by 2025 begins.
Find out how to prepare now, including how to tell if your plastic items are designed for single-use.
