Packaging Product Stewardship Scheme
Public meeting - 26 February 2009

The Packaging Council hosted this public meeting in Auckland to discuss the options for developing a Packaging Product Stewardship Scheme to succeed the second Packaging Accord when it expires in June 2009.

The purpose of the public meeting was to open the door to the wider community and invite a wide range of views on the most effective, economically viable packaging product stewardship model for New Zealand with the aim of minimising the environmental impact of packaging and improving packaging recovery rates, within the framework of the new Waste Minimisation Act. ;
