Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Circular Economy: Discussion (30 Apr 2024)

Christopher O'Sullivan: I thank the Minister of State for his update on the circular economy. I welcome his statement on the banning of disposable vapes. They are a scourge on our environment and far too easy to buy. There is the added issue of HHC vapes, which are causing problems for people with mental health issues. That is a matter for the Department of Health, though. I welcome the deposit return scheme....

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Circular Economy: Discussion (30 Apr 2024)

Ossian Smyth: The deposit return scheme is there to address a problem, namely, not enough of our bottles and cans are being recycled and are ending up in the environment. If the Deputy has ever taken part in a Tidy Towns group and walked along the roads, he will have seen that approximately half of the litter items the group picks up are bottles or cans. Some Tidy Towns groups are quite analytical in...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Circular Economy: Discussion (30 Apr 2024)

Christopher O'Sullivan: ...machines is increasing exponentially. It is a teething issue. I urge people to have patience. It has been brought to my attention that people still need domestic recycling services for paper and other waste. A big volume of what went into the recycling bins was made up of plastic bottles.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Climate Action: Circular Economy: Discussion (30 Apr 2024)

Christopher O'Sullivan: Some still have a fixed fee, and this is probably where the issue arises. I heard an interesting debate on the radio yesterday about paper bags.

Search Tips

  • KildareStreet search is case-insensitive, and tries to match all the search terms within a document.
  • To exclude a word from your search, put a minus ("-") sign in front, for example to find documents containing the word "representation" but not the word "taxation":
    representation -taxation
  • To search for an exact phrase, use quotes (""). For example to find only documents contain the exact phrase "Mahon Tribunal":
    "mahon tribunal"
  • If you want to search for words only when they're used near each other in the text, use "NEAR". For example, to find documents containing the word "elephant" near the word "room":
    elephant NEAR room
  • If the search phrase matches (part of) a TD or Senator's name, their own page will appear as the top result, but will also search speeches made by them too.
  • From a person's page, you have the option to search only their speeches.
  • Advanced Users: You can perform boolean searches, with brackets, AND, OR, and XOR. There are many prefixes you can use directly instead of the advanced search form, here's a selection:
    • party:Lab
    • department:Defence
    • section:seanad OR section:wrans
    • section:debates
    • section:committees
    • date:20120918
    • 20080101..20080131
