Plastic Plastic Packaging Tax (PPT) New Consultation

The Government has launched a consultation on a proposed requirement for mechanically recycled plastic packaging to be subject to mandatory certification in order to qualify for exemption from PPT.

The consultation seeks views on whether certification would provide a robust and proportionate way to verify recycled content claims, help reduce errors and fraud, and how any new requirement should operate in practice, including implementation timescales.
