Additionally, authorities will have the power to seize vehicles involved in specific waste crimes.<\/li>\n<li>Restrictions on Unsold Goods Disposal: Powers to limit the disposal of unsold goods and impose charges on single-use items, with beverage cups being the initial target.<\/li>\n<li>Local Recycling Targets: Inspired by Wales\u2019 success, statutory local recycling targets will be established.<\/li>\n<li>Support and Investment: Backed by the \u00a370 million Recycling Improvement Fund, the measures will be reinforced with support and investment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>However, the bill has faced criticism. Civil rights advocates argue that it grants councils excessive powers to inspect rubbish and impose fines for incorrect bin usage. Businesses express concerns over potential additional costs from the single-use item tax. UK Hospitality Scotland, referring to the tax as a \u2018latte levy,\u2019 criticised the lack of detail in the legislation and warned of possible cost increases for businesses, drawing parallels to Scotland\u2019s unsuccessful deposit return scheme.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.circularonline.co.uk\/news\/scotland-passes-circular-economy-bill-amid-fears-of-bin-snooping\/\">Circular Online<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-548\/\">Scotland passes Circular Economy Bill amid fears of \u201cbin snooping\u201d<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[838,575,1162],"class_list":["post-132111","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-circular-economy","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-scotland"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132111","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=132111"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/132111\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=132111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=132111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/fi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=132111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
