Question
To ask the Scottish Parliamentary Corporate Body what preparation the Parliament has made for the introduction of the Deposit Return Scheme.
Answer
The SPCB is continuing to review the requirements under the Deposit and Return Scheme for Scotland Regulations 2020 and how they apply to the Garden Level Restaurant/Garden Coffee Bar and shop at the Holyrood site.
The other outlets would not fall under the customer deposit element of the scheme (i.e., the public café, Holyrood Room, QBH Lounge) as they don’t offer any takeaway options.
