The scheme is in 'grave danger' unless UK ministers allow glass to be included, said Humza Yousaf.
The Scottish government will meet on Tuesday to discuss the implications if Mr Sunak does not respond to the first minister's deadline on Monday.
Circularity Scotland, the administrator of the scheme, said Mr Jack's claim was "totally inaccurate" and that a target of 90% for the remelting and reuse of glass would rise to 95% once the scheme was launched. In his letter to Mr Sunak, Mr Yousaf urged a rethink on removing glass, citing "a significant impact on business".Mr Jack said on Sunday there would be a single bar code system and membership of just one scheme would be needed instead of multiple schemes so there would be no extra costs.
"If I get off the train in Carlisle and buy some recyclable material and it's 10p in Carlisle and 20p in Dumfries, I double my money. That makes no sense."In his letter to the prime minister, Mr Yousaf had cited concerns raised by C&C Group - one of the country's biggest brewers and the company behind Tennent's Lager.
