Waste Management: Motion (Resumed).

7:00 pm

I had great time for the Green Party before the election. We all know about waste management, waste and the problems in this country that must be dealt with. They are very serious problems. The only answer the local authorities provided was to privatise it. I hope that the people creating the most waste will have to pay for it. There is no waiver scheme for waste disposal and elderly people are now paying more than some of the big businesses to have their waste disposed. I hope the Green Party creates a bit of fairness in the system.

The Green Party Deputies said one thing in opposition, but they have done something else in government. I thought they would have learned. The Taoiseach is one of the greatest, because he has taken the six Green Party Deputies and put them under his arm. In the next five years, he will have squeezed them so much that after the next election people will be wondering if we had a Green Party at all. The Green Party Deputies will be gone to sea and will be the first people to use the incinerator in Dublin.
