Waste firms propose downsizing of incinerator to create jobs

Representatives of Dublin waste companies claim they have the capacity to create new waste facilities for the capital that would generate 235 new jobs.

The Irish Waste Management Association has said it has a major strategy for jobs and investment, if the Government will cooperate with their plan.

Spokesperson Brendan Keane wants the authorities to downsize the Poolbeg incinerator, and make landfill more expensive.
