848. Deputy Michelle Mulherin asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government the evaluation carried out by his Department on the waste prevention by-laws of Mayo County Council, and the efficacy of same; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [28391/15]
View answerSection 35(1) provides for the making of by-laws by local authorities in relation to the presentation of waste. The approval of a draft by-law, the consideration of submissions in relation to such draft by-law and the making, amendment or revocation of a by-law made under the Local Government Act 2001, are each functions reserved to the elected members of individual local authorities.
