The making of a regional waste management plan, including in regard to the provision of waste management infrastructure, is a matter for the local authorities concerned. While the plan for the Limerick, Clare and Kerry region provides for thermal treatment with energy recovery as part of its waste management strategy, I understand that a proposal has yet to be developed in relation to the provision of a specific facility at any particular location.
