Waste incineration feasibility study
Farrelly asked when the working group would report and whether European funding was available. The Minister clarified that a commissioned feasibility study had examined waste quantities, disposal options and a possible incineration facility, and said its report was published and available in the Library.
Does the Minister know how long the working committee will take to issue a report? Is there any proposed plan for funds from Europe for helping us in this regard?
Comment on this
That is correct. We commissioned a feasibility study by a certain company to ascertain the quantity and type of waste and how to dispose of it. We also asked what they would recommend by way of a new incineration facility for certain types of waste.
