Legislation enabling a crackdown on single-use plastics, under consideration in Bermuda for years, is to finally get its day in the House of Assembly as MPs review the Single-Use Plastics Act 2026.
It is the sole item up for debate today.
Jaché Adams, the Minister of Public Works and Environment, told the House in March that the legislation would allow the Government to ban items “only after consultation, only after listening to stakeholders and only after determining that alternatives are viable for both our environment and our economy”.
For that reason, the Bill’s schedule listing prohibited items has intentionally been left blank.
