A new recycling bill is set to pass through the Victorian Parliament, providing 10 cent refunds for cans, bottles, and cartons.<\/p>\n

At the time of writing, the \u2018Circular Economy (Waste Reduction and Recycling) Bill\u2019 has passed through the lower house but, has not yet been debated or voted on by the upper house.<\/p>\n

Under the bill, the container deposit scheme (CDS) will come into effect by 2023, funded by beverage supplies and overseen by a new authority, Recycling Victoria.<\/p>\n

While the scheme is set to reduce waste and increase the amount of resources recovered by recycling, it\u2019s not all positive.<\/p>\n

Existing refund schemes run by volunteer groups, such as the Bacchus Marsh Lions Club, may lose revenue from the CDS.<\/p>\n

The Bacchus Marsh Lions Club runs the \u2018Cash n Can\u2019 program, receiving crushed cans from the community monthly, at the Village Green for 75 cents a kilogram.<\/p>\n

Russ Hendry is President of the Bacchus Marsh Lions Club, and said while the Cash n Can Program would likely lose some income, it wasn\u2019t all doom and gloom.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe get probably half of our cans from donations from the Bowling Club, CFA, those kinds of organisations…they\u2019re not fussed about collecting, they know the Lions Club will use the money wisely, so they give them to us,\u201d Mr Hendry told the Moorabool News.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe mightn\u2019t get as many cans [once the CDS comes into effect], unless we can get on the bandwagon\u2026but it\u2019s really not that significant in our fundraising, we\u2019d find some other income source. But Cash n Can does help when we do the Royal Children\u2019s Hospital Appeal and that sort of thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
