Legislation for compulsory scheme was passed by Holyrood in 2019 but there is no longer launch date, say ministers
Scottish ministers have been accused of making a shambolic mess of their bottle and can recycling programme after admitting they no longer had a launch date for the scheme.
Scotland was expected to be the first part of the UK to introduce a compulsory bottle and can recycling scheme for retailers in July next year, but the Guardian revealed on Monday that target date was expected to be scrapped.
