After a three-month consultation with towns and cities, as well as plastic bottle and recycling businesses, the Ministry of Ecological Transition has announced that a mandatory deposit system will not be enforced.

If these systems end up in a funding deficit, taxpayers may be forced to cover the costs.
The plans were revealed by minister for the Environment Nicola Grigg, who states that the recycling scheme will be managed by the not-for-profit Agrecovery Foundation and replace the current voluntary recycling schemes. It will require producers to contribute a small fee for products sold to support a free network of collection services and take-back sites.
