Committee of Supply 2024 debate, Day 4: Carrie Tan on reducing wasteful consumption and re-thinking after-death services
MP Carrie Tan said that even though more than half of households say they are recycling, the actual domestic recycling rate based on recyclables collected is only 13 per cent. In Parliament on Monday (Mar 4), she said it is time to shift focus to "reducing" and "reusing" instead, while "recycling" happens in parallel. Ms Tan also spoke about end-of-life awareness. She said there must be more willingness towards alternatives such as inland or sea-scattering of ashes.
