The information requested is not held by my Department.

While I am aware that materials processed under the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) are sent to licensed facilities in Ireland, the UK or Europe for recycling, I have no function in this matter. The collection, processing and collection of DRS materials is an operational matter for Re-turn, the DRS operator.
