On the issue of refuse collection, many counties have privatised the system and it is working well. I am aware that in Dublin there was a debate on charges for larger and smaller bins and I understand a waiver system applies in some local authority areas. We have now reached a situation where there have been problems with the privatised system in relation to charges. I have spoken to some of those who operate these systems. When I refer to the fact that charges have increased substantially in some counties, they say that local authorities are charging extra for the use of tipheads. This has caused many problems.
