Procurement Policy: elimination of single use plastics
11.1 Plastic waste is one of the greatest environmental challenges facing the world today. In response to this, we expect you to seek to eliminate the use of single use plastics in our working environment and supply chain. Single use plastics are disposable plastics, which are used only once before they are thrown away or recycled. 11.2 This policy seeks to identify areas where single-use plastics are prevalent and where more sustainable replacements can be chosen. Monitoring usage of single use plastics will help us to implement a measurable reduction plan. 11.3 Together, we make a commitment to: (a) work with each other ensure that the use of single use plastics is eliminated from our working environment; (b) work with our partners to ensure that single use plastics are not used at any events that we hold or have a role in organising; (c) work with each other, our partners and the local business community to develop innovative projects to eliminate the use of single use plastics across the local business community; and (d) share best practice and information about our single use plastic elimination initiatives with each other, our partners and the local business community.
