New pollution charges mooted by government
The Government will consider charges to curb misuse of air and water as part of the 1974-75 Budget.

The budget also targets packaging waste, virgin resources, and tariffs to support environmentally desirable products. The Environment and Conservation Department will develop a planned program with legal framework and funding for environmental impact studies, potentially over a decade, with initial steps in the 1974-75 Budget.
