<p>We are developing reforms to the packaging producer responsibility scheme. We are
looking at all aspects of the regime, including mechanisms to incentivise better design,
encourage the use of recycled material and make better use of materials at the end
of life. This could include making producers pay more if their products are not easily
recyclable and them paying less if their products are made from recycled materials.</p><p>
</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The proposed models for reform will embody principles of extended
producer responsibility, including packaging producers funding the end of life costs
of their packaging products, as well as the collection and disposal costs of packaging
waste.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>We want to create a vibrant market for recycled
materials in the UK, including plastic. Our forthcoming Resources and Waste Strategy
will set out how we will deliver these ambitions.</p><p> </p>
