Councillors to pack bags for illegal dumping tour
Figures released yesterday by the Western Division of the council show major increases in recycling of glass, paper and plastics compared to the corresponding data for the first few months of last year.
However, while the figures pleased councillors, some expressed serious concern at illegal dumping. A tour of the region was first proposed by Cllr Christy O'Sullivan (Ind) who said he had come across several locations being used by illegal dumpers.
