Mr. Mark Griffin:

There may be a need for capacity in other areas. I take the Chairman's point. When one considers the scale of the market and the level of landfill capacity that is there and what is needed, by 2030 - if I have the figure right - we will only be allowed to divert 10% of our municipal solid waste to landfill. We need to focus much more on reuse and recycling.
