The Packaging Waste (Data Collection and Reporting) (Wales) Regulations 2023 aim to improve the management and recycling of packaging waste in Wales. These regulations impose new obligations on businesses involved in the production, use, and recycling of packaging, with the goal of reducing the environmental impact of packaging waste.
Essentially, the regulations require businesses to collect and report data on the packaging they produce, use, and recycle. This data will be used to monitor and assess progress towards recycling targets and to inform policy decisions on packaging waste management. Compliance with these regulations is essential to reduce the environmental impact of packaging waste and support a more sustainable approach to packaging management.
