Waste Management: Statements (Resumed).
In Roscommon County Council we had an anomaly which I raised in the House where the council was removing a bend on a road. It was asked to put the material into a site 300 yards down the road but that could not be done. Instead it had to be transported over 17 miles to the nearest dump. That is not waste management. It involved the transport of that material to a dump and it was filling up the landfill which is a scarce commodity. I wish the Minister well. Waste management is a challenge that faces all of us.
