Consolidation of waste packaging regulations postponed

DEFRA reports that the consultation on consolidating the packaging waste regulations has been concluded.  It has not been possible to gain a consensus on the changes in time to update the regulations to meet previously agreed targets. It has therefore been decided not to go through with the consolidation this year.  The situation will be further reviewed in 2017. https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/packaging-regulations-consolidating-the-packaging-waste-regulations
