The single-use plastics directive, which I hope the Deputy is familiar with, banned the ten most common single-use plastic items that wash up on beaches. Since then, we moved on to cigarette butt filters, which are also single-use plastics. We then moved on to plastics in wet-wipes. We then moved on to single-use plastics in balloons. Really, we are moving through all the different products that have single-use plastics in them. We are incentivising people to either recycle or reuse and to move away from them and we are trying to lead by example. That is where we are moving on single-use plastics.
