Litter strategy - five years on: review

Appendix 1: Stakeholder Engagement

Zero Waste Scotland invited about 20 experts involved in litter prevention to form a steering group to oversee the review. The steering group (Table 1) took part in three half-day workshops between August and October 2019, and provided additional, ad hoc comments and feedback throughout this period.
