NATIONAL NEW SOUTH WALES
The ACT Government has announced their Tranche 2 single-use plastic ban regulations
Banned 1 July 2022
From 1 July 2022, the following items are prohibited from sale, supply, or distribution in the ACT: » single-use plastic straws (including bioplastic alternatives)* » cotton buds with plastic sticks » all oxo-degradable plastics. *An exemption allows people who need them to access plastic straws.
Barrier bags were raised during consultation earlier in the year; however these have not been included in the Tranche 2 ban but may be considered in the future.
Reminder
Single-use plastics items which are already banned in the ACT: » single-use plastic cutlery and stirrers (including bioplastic alternatives) » EPS takeaway food and beverage containers » lightweight plastic shopping bags (less than 35 microns in thickness).
Enforcement
The ACT Government is committed to supporting businesses and community organisations to adapt to these changes and will pursue an education-first approach to compliance.
