The decision to close a landfill is a matter for the landfill owner and/or the Environmental Protection Agency. It is not a matter in which I have any function.
Under section 60 (3) of the 1996 Act, I am precluded from exercising any power or control in relation to the performance in particular circumstances of functions conferred on the Agency or a local authority under the Act.
