ACT Legistative Assembly
Region:
Australia

This 10 cent Container Deposit legislation would benefit ACT communities and environment in many way.

This would extend the life of the landfills in the ACT, Encourage recycling, reduce littering along the road side, river, lakes within the ACT, reduce the incidents of "glassing", reduce playground incidents that are caused by glass shards, help in supporting local charities and community groups in the ACT, reduce costs of the ACT Government from roadside cleaning and Reduce environmental management costs.

ACT families are amongst the highest recyclers in Australia, and they would be financially remunerated for being so.

We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge the ACT Legislative Assembly to act now, and to consider 10c Container Deposit Legislation and/or a similar scheme in the Australian Capital Territory.
