<p>We remain committed to making packaging producers responsible for the costs of
managing packaging waste. We are reviewing responses to the consultation on Extended
Producer Responsibility for packaging, and will publish a Government response in early
2022. This will detail our final policy positions, including on the approach to managing
packaging deposited in bins and littered on the ground.</p><p> </p><p>The Impact Assessment,
that was published alongside the Extended Producer Responsibility for packaging consultation,
provides details on our estimates of the costs associated with managing binned waste
and ground litter. That is available here: (<a href="https://consult.defra.gov.uk/extended-producer-responsibility/extended-producer-responsibility-for-packaging/supporting_documents/Extended%20Producer%20Responsibility%20Impact%20Assessment.pdf"
target="_blank">https://consult.defra.gov.uk/extended-producer-responsibility/extended-producer-responsibility-for-packaging/supporting_documents/Extended
Producer Responsibility Impact Assessment.pdf</a>), and will be updated as part of
the Government response to the consultation.</p>
