SG: Regelgeving voor reductie verpakkingsafval in de maak
Under the Sustainable Singapore Blueprint 2015, Singapore is working towards becoming a Zero Waste Nation. To provide impetus for more actions to be taken to reduce waste, the National Environment Agency (NEA) will be introducing mandatory requirements for more sustainable packaging waste management.
The Singapore Packaging Agreement was first introduced in 2007 for 5 years. A second Agreement took effect on 1 July 2012 and was due to expire on 30 June 2015. It was extended for 5 years till 30 June 2020. To curb the growth of packaging waste at source, NEA will be implementing mandatory requirements for businesses, within the next three to five years (Nieuwsbericht NEA, 12 juli 2016).
