Joint Oireachtas Committee on Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht

Proposed Incinerator at Poolbeg: Dublin City Council

3:25 pm

Mr. Michael Phillips:

As part of the negotiation a design was made for the relocation of the plant. When a plant is being relocated, we have to examine the proposed new layout and health and safety issues. I vaguely remember there were new fire standards at the time. Recycling the existing tanks had to be examined also, but when the entire package was put together, a decision was made that it was an acceptable deal at the time. That is how the new plant was built and commissioned.
