Thank you. I was distracted, sorry! My question is to the Minister for the Environment and Water. Given the New South Wales EPA ordered Coles and Woolworths to dump more than 5,200 tonnes, or five billion pieces, of soft plastic waste into landfill from their failed REDcycle scheme and acknowledging that single-use plastic is not only a pollution crisis but a climate one, will the minister force change by introducing a levy on the production and consumption of single-use plastics made from virgin plastic?
