Nov 25, 2022

ACCC announced that major supermarket retailers will form part of a Soft Plastics Taskforce to discover solutions to address the direct impacts of REDcycle suspending its return-to-store soft plastics recovery program, subsequent a conditional ACCC interim authorisation.

Last week retail companies Coles, Woolworths & ALDI filed an urgent application for interim authorisation.

As per this conditional ACCC interim authorisation the authorised supermarkets can involve in meetings of the Soft Plastics Taskforce, which will try to find  waysto develop as well as implement, a short-term solution for the storage, transportation, processing, recycling, and management of soft plastics.

The application foresees the need for  a longer-term solution to the issue of recycling soft plastics and the proposed conduct will not reduce from or adversely disturb the development of longer-term solutions.
