So am I correct in assuming that the imposition of the Deposit Return scheme will effectively cost me 20p for every glass item which I leave for collection by the council? Nor does the argument that this scheme will prevent littering stack up; only effective education of our young people is likely to achieve that. As is the decision to press ahead with the Deposit Return scheme. The company in question is Kingspan, one of the largest producers of building products using steel in the world. These events, like Mother’s Day, Halloween and Valentines Day are just another date on their promotional calendar.
