MWITA-CI-2026-029 · Evidence A · P2
South Africa's gazetted December 2025 National Waste Management Strategy 2026 document was explicitly a fourth draft; its proposed diversion and EPR targets are consultation-stage policy, not final rules or achieved circularity outcomes.
What this does not establish
Draft diversion percentages must not be presented as law or outcome.
Counterevidence & uncertainty
Final strategy may revise targets, instruments, dates or responsibilities.
What would change the reading
Replace with final gazette and subsequent audited performance reporting.
