Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Collection and Recycling of Farm Plastics: Discussion
Mr. Liam Moloney:
They will not have to fully compensate for it, but, for example, the Deputy's local recycling plant will take 6,000 or 7,000 tonnes from us. At the rate AES is operating, it might take 7,000 or 8,000 tonnes. That is why we feel we will get a third of our material away to Irish recyclers. We are quite confident that we can send the rest abroad to recyclers with whom we have a long-term relationship.
