Vol. 427 No. 2

Written Answers. - Waste Recycling.

Michael Noonan

Ceist:

167 Mr. Noonan (Limerick East) asked the Minister for Transport, Energy and Communications if any grants or subsidies are available through his Department to any private contractor involved in the recycling of domestic and commercial waste.

My primary interest is in the potential to use waste as an energy source. While grants are not available for the generation of energy from waste, this is an area where I will be examining the possibilities for development.

Recycling of domestic and commercial waste is primarily a matter for the Department of the Environment and I understand that it operates a recycling grant scheme.
