Why don't we have a Container Deposit Scheme?

So much of the rubbish left around Manly is bottles.
"Australians consume drinks in over 12 billion containers a year.  Only half of these are recycled, mostly collected via kerbside and much less, away from home (food halls, events, public spaces).   The other half are littered or landfilled representing a big waste of resources.  If they were recycled via a Container Deposit Scheme (CDS) that is cash for the return of containers - the energy, water and raw materials used in and pollution from container production would be significantly less.

In addition thousands of new jobs would be created; charities helped; and crucially, hundreds of new convenient drop-off centres established - at no cost to government. They have done it successfully for 30 years in South Australia and now the Northern Territory, why can't we do it in NSW?" Quoted from the Boomerang Alliance. More details on their website.

Be sure to read the comment on the blog below from Councillor Cathy Griffin, who has initiated this discussion.

What steps are being taken or could be taken in NSW to implement a Container Deposit Scheme (CDS), and how can individuals or local communities contribute to pushing for this change to reduce waste and improve recycling rates? <a href="https://jakarta.telkomuniversity.ac.id/en/tourist-destinations-suitable-for-telutizen-jakarta/">discuss with us</a>
