Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment
Illegal Dumping: Discussion (Resumed)
Dr. Tom Ryan:
The reporting of the leaks falls clearly within the remit of the local authorities. The leaks should have been reported to the local authorities and it is for them to decide if additional enforcement action is required. The EPA is the competent authority under the environmental liability directive and we are still going through our processes at the moment.
