Deputy PM Tanczos Barna: Guarantee-Return System (SGR) should not be extended, but stabilised

The Guarantee-Return System (SGR) should not be extended, but should be maintain in the current form for a few years to stabilise, so that we get sure that it functions well and so that we can learn along the way what are its positive and negative elements, Deputy Prime Minister Tanczos Barna told a specialist event on Thursday. "This system (SGR) should not be a system that produces profit. (...) Neither retailers, nor producers, nor other participants in this system should look at the system as a source of profit. (...) The system should not be extended. At the moment, it should be left for a few years exactly as it to stabilise, so that we can get sure it functions well, and so that we can learn along the way what are its positive and negative elements," Tanczos stated. According to the official, the SGR is a system that must be stabilised month by month, because "every day we face new challenges." "I am extremely proud of the fact that this institution has managed to lay the foundations of a functional, solid, efficient system with a special report from all points of view and from a social point of view, because it has managed to educate the population of Romania including from an economic point of view and we have relevant figures here about the economic report but also from an environmental point of view. (...). Together with those who were the creators and initiators of this project, beverage producers, we have managed to lay the solid fundamental foundations, which must remain foundations for the coming years (...) I still believe that the SGR is not mature, it must be stabilised month by month. Day by day we face new challenges. At the moment it is the best-known environmental project for collecting packaging waste in the country, it is loved by the population, it is used by the population, and our obligation is to find economic sustainability solutions," the official also said. RetuRo and Green Report are organising, on Thursday, the launch event of the study on the company's socio-economic impact, carried out by the Bucharest Academy of Economic Studies - Faculty of Business Administration with teaching in foreign languages.
