Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
I agree with Senator Dardis and others in relation to the amount of paper we, as public representatives, see used. I am aware of individuals in other organisations who encounter similar problems. It should be entirely unacceptable for glossy magazines to be wrapped in plastic, just as it is no longer acceptable for fast food restaurants to use styrofoam. We need to be vigilant in relation to how we proceed so we can reduce the amount of waste that is produced.
