New panel set up to tackle waste disposal
A new subcommittee on plastic and electronic waste will intensify garbage disposal measures by reviewing the existing quota on waste imports.
The panel will work under the National Environment Board, chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Prawit Wongsuwon, which on Thursday resolved to endorse its establishment. The new 29-member panel will be led by Natural Resources and Environment Minister Varawut Silpa-archa.
