Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Farm Plastics Recycling: Discussion

Mr. James Fitzgerald:

Yes. Part of that uneconomical scenario relates to low oil prices over the last number of years, which have changed the dynamic of the market. It is a commodity market and we would expect in the medium to longer term that this will correct itself. Perhaps, with a bit more legislative assistance, both in Ireland and in Europe, we would be in a position where this market could balance itself out.
