Yan Yean electorate
Lauren KATHAGE (Yan Yean) (14:58): (717) In May we celebrated 500 million containers being returned as part of the container deposit scheme, which is $50 million for the community. I want to ask the Minister for Environment how we are tracking, because that was May, and I know that at the reverse vending machine at Waterview Recreation Reserve in Mernda in June alone 100,000 containers were deposited – $10,000 back into the pockets of the local community just in time for school holidays and the costs that come with haircuts before going back to school. So I would like to know: in July, how many containers were deposited across the electorate of Yan Yean?
