Question
To ask the Scottish Government what the current publication status is of Zero Waste Scotland’s report on insight into consumer food waste behaviours, and how much the report cost to produce.
Answer
The publication of the Household Food Waste Behaviours Research was delayed due to reprioritisation of work during the COVID-19 pandemic; however, results have continued to inform ongoing intervention and communication development. Zero Waste Scotland has confirmed this report is currently being reviewed to ensure the information remains valid and appropriate to publish as a standalone document. The cost of this work was £20,000.
