Zero Waste Scotland has announced that it is to become independent. From June it will no longer be a subsidiary company of WRAP operating under the WRAP board, but an organisation operating under its own governance structure.
The decision came about from a close consultation with WRAP, after examining a number of options for realigning the governance and management of Zero Waste Scotland to better achieve these outcomes.
Zero Waste Scotland’s current delivery plan will not be affected by this change.
The programme will continue to combine a Scottish-focused delivery team with investment in WRAP’s highly successful UK-wide initiatives such as the Courtauld Commitment, the Hospitality and Food Service Agreement and the Product Sustainability Forum.
A letter from George Burgess, head of environmental quality to stakeholders has been sent to make an up-date on this matter.
