Given that there are only four open and active landfill sites in the State, is there any need for regional waste plans? I was in one in the midlands, and I am sure there is one for the west. Are they still there or are they meaningless? If there is a national policy what is the point of people in the Munster group of local authorities having a regional plan if there is no incineration or landfill facilities in their region? We are really talking about one national policy at this stage. Are these plans still going through local authorities?
