Waste Management
Dail Éireann — 2023-12-13
============================================================

Joan Collins (I4C), Dublin South-Central

What we have to do here is set the principle, and this must be done by the Government, that waste collection must be remunicipalised. Very important issues are at stake here. One is the overseeing of waste management. Waste has a great effect on pollution, water quality in our seas and rivers, and the spread of microplastics, not to mention the waste we export for other countries to deal with. We need public management of waste for the environment as well and I would like to hear this from the Minister of State.
