asked the Minister for Local Government and Public Health if there has been any reduction in the number of removals per week of household refuse in the City of Dublin and the Borough of Dun Laoghaire; and, if so, whether he will state if the present number of removals per week is adequate, having regard to public health requirements.
Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Disposal of Household Refuse.
The reply to the first part of the question is in the affirmative, with the exception of the collection of refuse from hospitals and large hotels in the centre of the City of Dublin, where there has been no alteration. In the case of Dublin County Borough the reports I have received from the corporation contain evidence that the present removals satisfy the requirements of public health, while in the case of Dun Laoghaire the reports received indicate that the removals are considered to be adequate.
