Part of 1. Questions to the First Minister – in the Senedd at 1:31 pm on 30 November 2021.
Well, we'll look forward very much to hearing that date. The tragedy is that we've lost years to all intents and purposes. We've been talking about a deposit-return scheme for Wales for almost a decade, and we're still talking about such a scheme for Wales.
Now, you decided, of course, to run a joint consultation process with the UK Government. What if the UK Government's ambition in terms of the scope of their proposals, when they do decide, is very different to the ambition that we have here in Wales? You've said in other contexts that Wales always operates most effectively, and this Senedd operates most effectively, when we bring Welsh solutions to meet the challenges we face. So, for how long are you happy to wait for Boris Johnson to get his act together, rather than introducing, once and for all, a deposit-return scheme for Wales?
