Original Note:
The sticking point was glass. The Irish scheme doesn't include glass. Scottish industry didn't want glass as its already extensively recycled. UK government also advised not to include glass owing to internal market Lorna Slater pressed on regardless. https://www.citizensinformation.ie/en/environment/waste-and-recycling/deposit-return-scheme/#:~:text=Some%20containers%20are%20not%20included,Containers%20over%203%20litres
