Senator O'Rourke is right to say we are coming to recycling too late. "Recycling" may be the current buzzword but it is happening on a very small scale. There is an ongoing controversy in Limerick over Gortnadromma dump. The local community is aggrieved that it has become a super-dump for Limerick city and county. It was badly run which, I am sure, is typical of landfill sites around the country, although, admittedly, there has been a dramatic improvement in the way it has been run over the past 18 months. Unfortunately, if one starts off on the wrong foot and the local community has to put up with associated hazards such as extra traffic, rats and flies etc., good work done at a later stage is not appreciated. Members of the local community took a case against the council and were awarded over £250,000 in the High Court. They proved in the information they presented that the dump was a hazard they could have done without.
