Final Global Plastics Treaty negotiations off to good start in Busan
Over the next few days, government representatives will negotiate the content of the final Global Plastics Treaty around four topics.
The first day of the final round of negotiations around a Global Plastics Treaty ended with an agreement to move a streamlined version of the draft text forward, signalling a strong intention to finalise and adopt the treaty before the end of the year.
The document that will be negotiated over the next few days is known as the Chair’s ‘non paper 3’, written by Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee (INC) Chair Luis Vayas Valdivieso (who is also Ecuador’s Ambassador to the UK).
