Special Report No 84: Transhipment of Waste (25 Jun 2015) John Deasy: It is as simple as that. The next issue came up with the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform. One of its most recent reports suggested that the abolition of town councils would be reviewed in some fashion. I had a discussion with Mr. Robert Watt about how that would play out. Town councils have been abolished. I hear both sides of the argument regarding the Department's position....

Special Report No 84: Transhipment of Waste (25 Jun 2015) John Deasy: Can Mr. McCarthy flesh that out for me? How does this work? Getting feedback from councillors is fine. What exactly is the proposal? Is it piecemeal? Has it not been though through yet? Is there a definite plan with regard to surveying?

Special Report No 84: Transhipment of Waste (25 Jun 2015) John Deasy: I think the Department should. This committee deals with how money is spent. The change was so transformational with regard to the local authorities and those living there that there should be a plan for how to determine that on an ongoing basis to see if things are working or not working. Some people already have very definite opinions about the weaknesses in the system one year on. The...

In September 2014 a final estimate was put on the planning tribunal at roughly €159 million. Where are we at with the tribunal right now? What is the estimated price tag?

Special Report No 84: Transhipment of Waste (25 Jun 2015) John Deasy: That remains. I obtained some information from Waterford County Council which is probably applicable to every local authority. It suggested that the allocation for roads in Waterford was 40% less than the allocation made in 2008. I do not know if that strikes Mr. McCarthy as being correct. Those are the figures I obtained. It indicated there had been a massive drop since 2008. I am not...
