MEETING OF SOUTH DUBLIN COUNTY COUNCIL

QUESTION NO.38

QUESTION: Councillor F. Timmons

To ask the Chief Executive for a report in to what SDCC pay to private bin company's to collect the County rubbish and what the cost is to the taxpayer via our property tax, to include as much information as possible?

REPLY:

The Council does not have any arrangements in place for the collection of waste by private bin companies.  This Council sold it's domestic waste collection service to Greyhound Waste in 2011 and from that date on arrangements for the collection of waste have been a matter for the householder and the many waste collectors who operate in this County.   The cost to the Council in relation to this matter is therefore nil.
