It is a problem—I agree with you there. I don’t believe this is something that will be resolved on a Welsh level because so many imports come from other countries where there are different regulations. So, for me, as to the way of ensuring that less waste is generated in the first place, that should be dealt with on a European level at least, but, really, on a global level, in order to ensure that producers in places like China, which export a great deal of their products to Europe, reduce the amount of plastic in their products in order to ensure that less plastic needs to be recycled in Wales.
