1061. Deputy Catherine Murphy asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government if an allocation has been made to Kildare County Council for a recycling facility in Celbridge, County Kildare; if so, when same occurred; the amount involved; if not, the outstanding issues; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [7786/20]
View answerI have no function in relation to recycling, waste policy generally or the funding of infrastructure in that regard. At a national level, responsibility for waste policy rests with my colleague,the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment. Waste management infrastructure provision at a local level is the responsibility of local authorities under Part II of the Waste Management Act 1996 (as amended).
