Protection of the Environment Bill 2003: Second Stage (Resumed).
I am less with the Minister on the question of charges. Perhaps members should be responsible for that but I accept the principle that if we are not prepared to make hard decisions they must be made by the executive. The Minister is correct in saying that someone somewhere pays. If I pay a bin charge why should I pick up the cost for the person beside me who does not do so?
