Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action

Circular Economy as it relates to the Waste Sector: Discussion.

11:00 am

Mr. Conor Walsh:

It is ongoing, yes. They have asked for evidence of the impacts on the material to recovery facility. We have provided some evidence, but they are asking for more. We are trying to get Repak involved to provide the evidence as Repak has all of that. Every piece of commercial information that is very sensitive for our members is submitted individually to Repak, which holds it. It is very hard for me to get that information, given that it is commercially sensitive and deals with companies competing against one another. We emailed Repak again yesterday, asking it to step in and get this information to the Government. Maybe if Repak can get it to the Government, that can all be avoided. All we are trying to do is avoid those price increases.
