That South Dublin Co. Council notes the findings of the recent report by the Consumer and Competition Protection Commission’s report into the domestic waste collection service, namely, that Ireland is the only EU member that has side-by-side competition in the domestic waste collection market and that 23% of households have no domestic waste collection service.

 The council also notes the alarming rise in illegal dumping and the lack of a waiver system in place for lower income households.

The council therefore calls upon the CEO to establish a review of the current tendering process with a view to:ending side-by-side competition and  furthermore calls upon the CEO to enter into discussions with the other Dublin County and City councils with a view to re-entering the domestic waste collection service
