An audit of the existing stock of Styrofoam food containers in the country must be completed before a date can be set for the enforcement of the ban on the use and sale of such containers.
This disclosure was made to Stabroek News on Wednesday by Minister of Natural Resources Raphael Trotman. It comes more than seven months after the David Granger administration had indicated that the importation and use of Styrofoam locally would be banned from the beginning of this year.
