The Queensland Government has announced the development of a new waste strategy and the formation of a Recycling and Waste Management Stakeholder Advisory Group.
Key to the new resource recovery, recycling and waste management strategy will be a waste disposal levy. The new strategy will also be complemented by legislative reforms and other measures.
The announcement came after the release by the Premier of Queensland of the final report and recommendations following the investigation into the transfer of interstate waste into Queensland. The Government’s response to the report was also released.
