Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Recycling Farm Plastics: Discussion

Mr. Liam Moloney:

Exactly. If we can identify that the plastic has not had the levy paid on it then the charge is double for the farmer. That is the system that operates at our bring centres and at the farmyard. We have a label code traceability system that allows us to trace the movement of the plastic. If we feel that a farmer has bought unlevied plastic or we have doubts, then a double charge can apply.
