Vol. 525 No. 3

Written Answers. - Landfill Sites.

Ivan Yates

Question:

269 Mr. Yates asked the Minister for the Environment and Local Government if he has given any consideration to introducing legislation whereby a proportion of the gross income to local authorities from landfill sites or private sector landfill sites, would be payable to the immediate local communities adjacent to these locations. [24911/00]

I have no such legislative proposals at this time. However, I am considering the possible utilisation of a proportion of revenues from the proposed landfill levy towards appropriate community support initiatives.
