The Claire Byrne Show · Going Green: Do we need a Digital Deposit Return Scheme? · 9 Jul 2026 podcast

That's a deposit return scheme.

Absolutely, yeah.

No.

Yeah, absolutely.

We don't because, look, it's not going to change.

I mean, all the machines, two and a half thousand machines put into supermarkets, the supermarkets have to get the material in order to pay for those.

We don't see that that's going to change.

And that's not what we're saying here.

But look, the reality is we need to increase recycling rates of all the materials.

It's not just those particular materials.

And a lot of other materials are not suitable for that kind of system.

So...

If you think about milk as an example, or your shampoo bottles or tins of beans or whatever, we need to recycle all those things.

Milk is a good example because it comes in two types.

HDP, which is a form of plastic, the plastic milk bottles that you see, they're different from the beverage ones.

It's a harder plastic, a thicker plastic.

But we're recycling that plastic in Ireland.

We've a full bottle to bottle plant in County Tyrone recycling that back into milk bottles.

Yeah, absolutely.

Yeah.
