Lack of bins leadsto illegal dumping crisis
Councillors in the region have become concerned at the alarming level of illegal dumping and some claimed that non-nationals living in rented accommodation were a significant part of the problem.
Cllr Sean Sherlock (Lab) said he didn’t want to be inflammatory, but he had proof that a number of immigrants were flouting the law. Meanwhile, FF’s Cllr Michael Donegan said non-nationals were coming out after dark and dumping refuse around the town of Charleville and outside it. He acknowledged, like Cllr Sherlock, that Irish people were equally irresponsible.
