To the Speaker and Members of the Legislative Assembly,
We, the undersigned petitioners, call upon the House to implement a ban on the following plastic products: single-use plastic coffee cups and lids, heavy-weight plastic checkout bags, plastic produce bags, plastic takeaway containers, and plastic bread bag clips, in order to reduce plastic pollution in NSW. Furthermore, your petitioners request that these products be replaced with products made of biodegradable materials, natural fabrics, or compostable bags, and that these changes be implemented by June 30, 2026.
