The government in England has introduced a 5p charge on plastic bags, from 5th October 2015 as part of a government scheme to reduce litter and protect wildlife. Only larger retailers who employ more than 250 people will have to levy the charge, which does not apply to corner shops or retailers who employ less than 250 people.
