QUESTION NO. 2

QUESTION: Councillor R. Dowds

To ask the Manager for an update on when the new system of paying (the microchip) for grey bin collections is going to start?

REPLY:

Preparations for the new automated advance credit system for waste charges are signigicantly advanced. 

The integrated Waste system and interim customer website have been prepared.  Customer cards are in production and the mailshot to customers is being finalised.

Agreement on routes and the use of the system have to be finalised with binmen and then the system will be introduced on a phased basis on routes throughout the County.  It is not possible to give a definitive date however it is likely to start rolling across the county at the end of June.
