Plastic bags are being shunned by councils in Western Australia who are making the most of the premier’s support for local governments to ban the bag.
The Town of East Fremantle and City of Fremantle have moved to implement a ban on plastic bags, making it the third try for the City of Fremantle after attempts in 2012 and 2015 were halted by the former state government.
Environment Minister Stephen Dawson supports a state-wide ban on plastic bags, which Premier Mark McGowan says could happen if shoppers have a convenient alternative.
