Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Farm Plastics Recycling: Discussion

Mr. Liam Moloney:

The plan is always to break even but it is generally impossible to hit the nail on the head. If we make more than we need and a significant surplus builds up, we give it back. If we find ourselves moving into a situation where we do not have enough to keep going, unfortunately, we have to look at increasing the recycling levy and collection charges.
