This year's breakfast will see the recently appointed Chief Executive of Green Industries SA, Dr Ian Overton, release the 2019-20 Recycling Activity Survey for South Australia. This very important snapshot of the state of Recycling in South Australia helps monitor performance against targets in South Australia’s Waste Strategy 2020-25 and sets the context for important initiatives underway and into the future.

This event will be a great opportunity to learn about how South Australia is responding to challenges and opportunities in the sector.
