asked the Minister representing the Minister for Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities, in writing, on 8 September 2011:

(1) Given that the Oil Product Stewardship Scheme has seen an increase in the volume of recycled oil in category 1 in the past few years, of this amount, how much is being recycled as:

  (a)   hydraulic oil;

  (b)   lubricant oil; or

  (c)   transformer oil.

(2) Does the Government have any plans to increase incentives for the types of oil not currently being recycled in category 1; if not, are there any other moves to increase the volume of the oils not being recycled in large volume in this category.
