PQ 111
111. Deputy Barry Cowen asked the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government if his Department or any body under its aegis has assessed the impact of the introduction of new pay-by-weight bin charges on smaller waste collection providers; if he is concerned that their introduction in July 2016 will impose an excessive burden on smaller waste collectors in rural and lower density areas and potentially have a significant effect on the waste collection market leading to a concentration of large providers; the cost of implementing the charges, by lorry; and the cost differential of implementing the new system in urban areas in comparison to rural areas.
