Litter league expands name-and-shame survey

A NATIONWIDE litter league that names and shames the country’s litter black spots is to double its operations to include all urban local authority towns with a population of more than 6,000.

The towns will be surveyed by An Taisce and ranked according to their litter levels in the newly expanded Irish Business Against Litter (IBAL) league.

Among the areas included for the first time will be Killarney, Naas, Lucan and the Taoiseach’s native Drumcondra.
