The Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council (ASBEC) welcomes the opportunity to provide feedback on the Government of South Australia’s draft 2025-2030 strategy for circular economy and waste. We commend the South Australian Government on its achievements regarding Supporting the circular economy: South Australia’s waste strategy 2020-2025 and strongly support the government’s leadership in the next tranche of its strategy.
