Continued need to use plastic item banned under the PRCE Act 2021

This form is for those interested in providing feedback about a continued need for access to and/or use of a banned item.

This form is not a formal application for an exemption under the PRCE Act. The form provides a mechanism for individuals to bring any issues arising from the banning of particular items to the EPA’s attention.

If you were previously a supplier of banned items and are interested in seeking an exemption from the PRCE Act, please use the exemption enquiry form.

Note: Completing this form does not mean that the EPA will grant an exemption that enables you to continue to access the banned item.
