Diolch, Llywydd. Wales is a world leader in recycling. We are best in the UK, second in Europe, and third in the world. This is a direct result of policies made in Wales. We have invested heavily in kerbside recycling infrastructure and have long-held statutory targets for local authorities, with fines if they're not met. I am proud of our record and the level of commitment to reducing, reusing and recycling right across the country that has got us where we are today.
