MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

Monday, July 12, 2010

QUESTION NO. 23

QUESTION: Councillor E. Tuffy

To ask the Manager for an updated report on the income received from the black bin household waste collection since 1st January, how the income received compares with the anticipated income and if he will make a statement on the matter?

REPLY:

The table below outlines the Waste Charges income in 2010:

 Total 2010 
January €639,447
February €701,256
March €655,575
April €587,049
May €666,607
June €646,403
€3,896,337

The budgeted income for the period is €4.5m but various factors taken into account when budgeting for the income figure for 2010 have not yet impacted on actual income, including the introduction of the brown bin, delays in some customers registering for the new waste charges system, rationalisation proposals and waiver lift and charge amendments.
