In its first month of operation it collected just 1 million euros, while in February it rose to 41 million euros, reaching 53.7 million euros in March and 70.4 million euros in April.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The trend in tax collection is upwards. In any case, not enough time has elapsed so far to make a correct assessment of whether the amount of virgin plastic in packaging has been reduced or not,&#8221; said Faysal Assakale, a tax specialist
