MOTION NO. 1

MOTION: Councillor M. Duff

That this Council calls the Irish Business Against Litter League and their agent, An Taisce, to refrain from including small Social Housing areas in their Annual Report, when considering the overall Littering report on the general area and should only consider Commercial and open Public Realm areas in their report.

REPORT:

If this motion is passed, letters will be issued to Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL) and An Taisce. The responses, when received, will be circulated to the Members. The Executive met with representatives from IBAL in July to discuss the survey. SDCC highlighted their concerns with the recent survey results and engaged in a productive and constructive discussion. We look forward to continued collaboration with increased communication going forward.
