I agree with that. It is an area we should look at with guidance from the Comptroller and Auditor General. I come from a city where the city council ended up in the High Court and the manager was very nearly jailed for contempt of court. We have a history in that regard. I also come from a city that learned to do it right and had a fantastic recycling system. I know it from both ends. We then privatised the service and I have serious concerns over where our rubbish is going, and other concerns in terms of value for money. I would support examining the issue. I would like more information on the remediation of sites, and that we would keep an eye on the situation. Galway has a number of such sites.
