View the policy documentThere has been an excellent collection rate of 85% for smaller bottles that has led to less ending up in the environment. The policy has been updated to include larger bottles. Large bottles, on the other hand, have continued to be a source of pollution. More infrastructure is needed in the form of bottle return machines.
