Today's front page leads with Tennent's warning Tory demands to ditch glass from Scotland's deposit return scheme could cost jobs. scotpapers Read More:
Tory plans to exclude glass from Holyrood’s deposit return scheme are threatening Scotland’s favourite lager.
He wrote: “The announcement further increases the already huge uncertainty around the scheme for the drinks industry, customers, and consumers and, if implemented, would be a fundamental change to the scheme.” He said: “The choice that we are faced with is either to concede to the UK Government’s unreasonable demands as part of their attempt not just to torpedo the DRS, but frankly to undermine devolution. That would be to exclude glass, but to do so may well be at the severe detriment of businesses in Scotland.”
“This could have been sorted out if the UK Government had granted the Internal Market Act exemption as was requested. It is now for them to explain to business why they have opted to treat Scotland with such contempt.”
