MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, November 09, 2009

QUESTION NO.3

QUESTION: Councillor R. Dowds

To ask the Manager for an update on the introduction of brown bins to South County Dublin and could the Manager indicate when and where the service will be introduced?

REPLY:

The Brown Bin scheme has been under discussion with Unions for some time and plans are now being advanced for the introduction of the service as soon as is possible and subject to no unanticipated delays

It is envisaged that the service will be fully rolled out to all Customers within the first quarter of 2010. This is essential to allow the Council to be compliant with national targets for the diversion of bio-degradable waste from landfill by the deadline date of July 2010.

Councillors will be advised of the roll out arrangements and service details in the coming weeks.
