The most recent figures published by the [[EA]] were for 2021 and show the performance against target (over-performance allows tonnage to be carried forwards into the following year for measurement, under-performance indicates that obligated organisations have not met their obligations in that year). In 2021 the provisional data (shown in the table below) suggests that [[Glass]] (focused on remelt) and [[Plastic]] did not meet their 2021 targets when removing the carry over tonnage from 2020. The targets and the reporting for 2021 do not include any tonnage for recovery. | The most recent figures published by the [[EA]] were for 2021 and show the performance against target (over-performance allows tonnage to be carried forwards into the following year for measurement, under-performance indicates that obligated organisations have not met their obligations in that year).
