Joint Oireachtas Committee on Communications, Climate Action and Environment

Illegal Dumping: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Tom Ryan:

We are going to see this particular issue closed out. There will be reporting requirements to local authorities and there are continued reporting requirements to us under the environmental liabilities directive. We are going to stay actively involved in it until it is closed out, noting that it will be the local authorities that will be the lead agencies in being satisfied that all of these things have been addressed satisfactorily by the ESB.
