A number of councils in Western Sydney recycle electronic waste collected through their local government collection systems under the National Television and Computer Recycling Scheme (NTCRS). Collection systems in the region include drop off sites at council facilities and council organised collection event days, as well as referral to collection sites operated by co-regulatory arrangements under the scheme.  Our councils are supportive of the initiative to recycle television and computer waste under a product stewardship arrangement, but are eager to see improvements to the delivery of this scheme to ensure councils have reliable access to recycling under the NTCRS.
