Flourescent lights have always contained mercury, there has never been any safe disposal mechanism in place. For the governments no incandescent bulb policy to work there has to be a collection and safe disposal mechanism in place.
I believe that there are some plans for disposal being implemented at the moment.
It's all a bit like Mr Rudds target of 25 Million hectare's in forest plantations (which is more than the available land for agriculture in Australia).
A knee jerk reaction that isn't well thought out.
