	tabling member constituency	Dunfermline and West Fife
	tabling member printed	Douglas Chapman
	uin	294181
	answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 08/10/2019 answer text <p>The introduction of the 5p Carrier Bag Charge has been highly effective at reducing consumption of single-use carrier bags. Composting standard EN 13432 defines the requirements for biodegradability of products required to meet the standard. This requires the use of an industrial composter. Compostable bags can be disposed of in foodwaste collections but only if the householder’s local authority uses an industrial composting process to treat the waste (some use anaerobic digestion). The Government would need to ensure that there was the right infrastructure in place and that the environmental benefits outweighed using conventional plastics before legislating to mandate that all plastic bags were compostable. That evidence is not yet available.</p> answering member constituency Taunton Deane answering member printed Rebecca Pow question first answered 08/10/2019 15:16:18 answering member 4522 label Biography information for Rebecca Pow
