83 National Environment Protection Council NEPC Acts Third Review 2012 The Used Packaging National Environment Protection Measure supports the object of the National Environment Protection Council Act by encouraging the recovery and re-use of packaging materials and thereby reducing pollution. While state, territory and local governments have primary responsibility for delivering appropriate waste management, avoidance, minimisation and resource recovery mechanisms (including for used packaging), the National Environment Protection Measure supports the second part of the object of the Act, as the measure and the covenant currently represent the only mechanism with national coverage that involves the entire packaging supply and recovery chain. The Used Packaging Materials National Environment Protection Measure underpins compliance action by jurisdictions and therefore supports the Australian Packaging Covenant.
