‘Cute’ illegal dumpers stay one step ahead

ILLEGAL dumpers in Kerry have become so “cute” that it is virtually impossible to catch them, it was revealed yesterday.

“People are just not leaving any evidence in the rubbish. They’ve copped on to that aspect of it,” said Kerry County Council’s environment director, Anne Haugh.

Last year, the council investigated 718 cases of illegal dumping, compared with 534 in 2006.
