Circularity Scotland's site further informs that under the DRS regulations passed by the Scottish Parliament in May 2020, drinks producers and importers can appoint a scheme administrator to fulfil the DRS obligations on their behalf.
With this aim the new organisation has been established by a combination of companies and trade associations representing their broader drinks producer and retail members.
The company claims that the goal on all parties is to establish a fit for purpose Deposit Return Scheme, that is ultimately expected to collect more than 90% of drinks containers in Scotland, and meet to prepare their legal obligations in the given timeframe.
