Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 8 June 2016
664. Deputy Clare Daly asked the Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation further to Parliamentary Question No. 34 of 28 April 2016, if she will provide a likely date upon which the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission will provide an update on its investigation of this issue. [14688/16]
View answerThe Competition and Consumer Protection Commission which is statutorily independent in the exercise of its enforcement function has advised me that the matter referred to in the Deputy’s question is under examination 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 Commission has further advised that it cannot comment on the matter or give a time frame for the completion of its examination.
