Ministries and Coordination Mechanism

Brunei Darussalam has no structured coordinating ministries working on marine plastic litter. However, two authorities deal with waste management to combat marine plastic litter: the Department of Environment, Parks and Recreation (Ministry of Development) and the Municipal Department (Ministry of Home Affairs). The former oversees environmental planning and manages the waste facilities for the entire country while the latter assists in waste collection and management in municipal areas such as Bandar Seri Begawan, Tutong, and Kuala Belait–Seria (Government of Brunei Darussalam, 2019).
