Drink companies win recycling challenge

COCA-COLA has won its Federal Court challenge to the Northern Territory's cash for containers recycling scheme.

In the Federal Court in Sydney on Monday, Justice John Griffiths found in favour of three major beverage companies which had applied for the NT scheme to be declared invalid so they wouldn't have to comply with it.

Coca-Cola Amatil, Schweppes Australia and Lion Pty Ltd took the case against the NT government over the scheme, which is similar to a long-running one in South Australia and involves a 10 cent deposit on drink purchases, refundable when the container is returned to a recycling agent.

Coca-Cola increased its drink prices in NT when the scheme was introduced a year ago, and said its prices would drop if it won the court case.
