The Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC), which is statutorily independent in the exercise of its enforcement function, has advised me that the examination of the matter referred to in the Deputy's question is ongoing, along with a number of other consumer issues which have arisen as a result of the introduction of a pay by weight charging structure for household waste. The CCPC has further advised that at this point it cannot comment further or give a time frame for the completion of its examination.
