Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Collection and Recycling of Farm Plastics: Discussion
Mr. Liam Moloney:
Let us be clear. The Walker company is in liquidation and has gone out of business. We cannot do business with the company anymore. Like it or not, we had to terminate the contract. The company does not exist anymore as an operating company.
We supported the company to the hilt while it was operating. We put a vast amount of material through the Walker plant in recent years and we were happy to do so. In addition, it was our biggest collector, covering eight counties. Despite our best efforts, unfortunately, the company went out of business. The company is out of business and therefore we cannot operate with the company anymore. That is why the contract was terminated.
