Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Collection and Recycling of Farm Plastics: Discussion

Mr. Liam Moloney:

The levy funds our organisation. We are self-funding. We are not for profit. The levy comes from the producers, the companies who put the product on the market, and is a weight-based collection charge. That is how we fund the organisation and it is why we are able to achieve such impressive results year on year.
