Our Circular Economy Strategy, Beyond Recycling, sets out the key actions being taken to transition Wales to a circular economy. This includes a range of work programmes, underpinned by partnership working and supported by communications campaigns to continue to build on our success which has seen Wales become one of the World’s best for recycling.
A key action to further improve our performance beyond that achieved in the Eunomia study and committed to in Beyond Recycling, was the delivery of the new Workplace Recycling Regulations which came into force on 1 April 2024.
We are also continuing to work in partnership with Local Authorities to further improve recycling services, supported by the provision of capital funding for infrastructure improvement and expert advice. In parallel we are also continuing to work with the other UK nations to bring in the Extended Producer Responsibility scheme for packaging and Deposit Return Scheme for drinks.
