​​​​​​​​​​The Waste and Resource Recovery Act 2022 passed through Parliament, supports the Government’s vision for waste and resource recovery in Tasmania into the future.

The legislation sets out the establishment of the Waste and Resource Recovery Board​​ to provide strategic oversight and drive our circular economy agenda. It also introduces a state-wide levy on waste disposed to landfill both as a disincentive to landfilling and as a mechanism to fund strategic investment into Tasmania’s waste and resource recovery sectors.
