Dubai municipality proposes ban on reusable plastic, paper bags
The authorities in Dubai have proposed a ban on single-use bags,
including both plastic and paper, and the ban will come into effect in
less than three months.
Earlier, the emirate had necessitated businesses imposing a 25-fil
charge on single-use plastic bags from the beginning of this year. As
per the policy, from June 1, all single-use bags will be prohibited
across retail outlets in Dubai, with stores not obligated to offer free
alternatives.
