Consultation on 'Recycle on the Go'

This consultation closed on 2 November 2007.

This consultation paper is issued by Defra, in association with Encams and Recycle Now. It proposes a voluntary code of practice and an associated good practice guide which are intended to help stimulate the provision of recycle bins in public places, and to facilitate good practice.

The measures contained in the consultation paper apply to England, and are voluntary.

The paper is principally concerned with how litter is collected for disposal or recycling in places that the public have access. The consultation underpins a commitment in the Waste Strategy for England 2007 on public place recycling.

The consultation paper seeks views on the proposed voluntary code of practice and the associated good practice guide.
