The draft strategy contains objectives including: improving partnerships, coordination and planning for waste management; encouraging waste avoidance and sustainable consumption; encouraging waste minimisation and resource recovery; improving the regulation and management of residual wastes; improving data collection systems; and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. It is expected that local governments, as well as the Tasmanian Government, will develop action plans to achieve the objectives for waste and resource management contained in the final version of the strategy.
