HWL Ebsworth has assisted TasRecycle Limited in its appointment as Scheme Coordinator for Recycle Rewards, the Tasmanian Government’s new container refund scheme.
TasRecycle is a not-for-profit joint venture between Asahi Beverages, Coca-Cola Europacific Partners and Lion, bringing their previous experience and knowledge in supporting other container refund schemes across Australia to this project.
In its role as Scheme Coordinator, TasRecycle will be responsible for supporting the rollout of the Tasmanian Recycle Rewards program by providing marketing and financial guidance, as well as responsibility for the overall functioning of the scheme, which will feature 49 container refund locations across the state.
The introduction of this container refund scheme in Tasmania will mean that, once live, container refund schemes will operate in all Australian states and territories.
The HWL Ebsworth team was led by Justin Pasa (Partner) with support from Iain McLaren (Special Counsel), Nicole Butler (Senior Associate), Vien Tran (Senior Associate) and Erin Upson (Solicitor), as well as Sarah Carroll (Partner – Banking and Finance), Jason O’Connell (Partner – IP/IT) and Sarah Sealy (Partner – Employment).
