Nytt produsentansvar for fiskeutstyr i plast
Norway is introducing a new extended producer responsibility scheme aimed at reducing plastic pollution and increasing the recycling of fishing gear. Producers and importers must now be affiliated with an approved producer responsibility organization and ensure that discarded equipment is collected and treated in a circular and environmentally sound manner.
