In response to Scotland's Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) Group Chief Executive Jeremy Darroch said:

"The commitment to introduce a Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) in Scotland is a very positive step in the fight against plastic pollution in our oceans. Sky Ocean Rescue will continue to highlight the damage caused by single-use plastics.

We hope the announcement in Scotland is the start of concerted action by governments and business to join the public who are calling for action to help save our oceans."
