18 Oct 2018Ban versus manage: witnesses differ on the right responseDŵr Cymru Welsh WaterDisagreement
[Speaker: Gareth Bennett] Yes. Sorry, but I'm still going to go on about wet wipes and cotton buds, because you've mentioned them as two particular products. As I understand it, we don't need, as a society, to have these products; there are other products available that could do the same job. So, there's the option that Andrew was saying, which is that, yes, we could tax these products. Well, wouldn't it be wiser simply to ban them, as there are other alternatives? Would that not be the best solution?
