Circular Economy policy roundtable with DEFRA/BEIS

Our circular economy programme is now up and running and, through live projects, is primarily focused on developing practical solutions to enable clients to specify circular outcomes and drive greater reuse of products and materials. However, there is also a role for Government to put in place a strong regulatory and legislative framework to help drive the outcomes that leading industry players want to see.

Update: This event has now passed. For more information on our Circular Economy programme please click here.

DEFRA’s recent 25 Year Environment Plan committed Government to doubling resource productivity over the Plan’s lifetime – and they promised a new national Resources & Waste Strategy to achieve this.  We are now expecting this to be published imminently.  Moving forward, Government officials are keen to work with UKGBC members to help them develop the specific policy interventions that will be needed.

We are therefore delighted that both DEFRA and BEIS officials will be joining us at this policy roundtable to hear industry’s suggestions at first hand.

This event is by invitation only.  For further information please contact Jenny Holland, Public Affairs and Policy Specialist.
