Early day motion 1278, tabled 2 April 2009 by Baroness McIntosh of Pickering (Conservative). Signed by 40 members.

That this House welcomes the launch of the British Retail Consortium's (BRC's) On-Pack Recycling Label, which is supported by the Waste and Resources Action Programme; notes that the label will help to support consumers to recycle more packaging; further notes that the label will help local authorities and others to increase recycling rates for those materials that could be recycled but that currently have low collection and recycling rates; supports the BRC's aim to encourage at least 60 retailers and suppliers to join the scheme by the end of 2009; and calls on as many companies as possible to support the scheme.
