"The waste review is expected to address the first part of the "reduce, reuse, recycle" slogan, by encouraging businesses such as toy makers and caterers to cut packaging and waste.
"David Symons, director at environmental consultancy WSP Environment & Energy, said:
"Although we produce 13% less waste than we did seven years ago, there's no getting away from the fact that we have a serious problem with waste in this country. Each person in the UK still throws away over half a tonne of waste every year – most of which goes to landfill.
The waste strategy needs to focus on helping busy people cut down on the amount of waste they produce, without making their lives harder with fines and infrequent collections."
