I understand the argument for Poolbeg as per what Mr. Collins has laid out here but additional thermal treatment does not make sense. We are trying to reduce plastic, to recycle more, we already use Poolbeg and Meath, why do we need more waste incineration in the country? If Mr. Collins cannot answer that and it is part of the local authorities' plan we should have them in here to question them about their plan and where they get these assumptions from.
