motion: <p class="indent" pid="d949.1/2" pwmotiontext="yes">That the draft Deposit Scheme for Drinks Containers (England and Northern Ireland) Regulations 2024, which were laid before this House on <phrase class="date" code="">25 November 2024</phrase>, be approved.</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="d958.2/3" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;The scale and pace of actions does not align with the challenge. While flagship waste management policies have been developed, their introduction has been delayed and they largely focus on end-of-pipe action. There is a lack of action focused on circular economy.&#8221;</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="d967.0/3" pwmotiontext="yes">&#8220;Wombles have litter picked these lay-bys numerous times&#8212;and we have picked over 1000 bags from these locations since 2021, but it&#8217;s just a thankless task and is extremely disheartening to see them full of litter again within a matter of days.&#8221;</p>
