NEW: Minsters have reportedly been told the rollout of the policy across the UK will not occur in October 2025.
The rollout of the shambolic deposit return scheme across the UK may be delayed until 2026. Industry sources believe the current date of autumn 2025 is unachievable.
But the MSP scheme was effectively vetoed by the UK Government when they demanded the exclusion of glass items. Scottish Ministers said implementation of DRS would be delayed until October 2025, when it would be aligned with the UK scheme. It was reported that meetings between government and industry bodies aimed at salvaging the scheme agreed that the already delayed start date is unachievable.
