Greens Party wants plastic bag tax details
The Department of the Environment dismissed the claim, saying it was without foundation. A spokesman for Minister Dick Roche said the funds were allotted periodically and there had been no delay this year.
Niall O Brolchain, a Green Party councillor in Galway City, this weekend asked why details for the Environmental Partnership Fund, one of the beneficiaries of the tax, have yet to be released, three months after they were due to be announced.
