"Mr President, I would like to thank the rapporteur for his work on this report.
For all the many citizens who petition Parliament, I am afraid to say that there are many other citizens who have no regard for waste management. We need to acknowledge that public awareness needs to be increased in relation to how to manage waste, both within the home and at work. There is much to be done. If people were obliged to visit landfills that were not working properly, they might think twice about dumping waste and putting it into refuse sacks. I know that in County Louth, where I come from, there is an old landfill dump that now soaks up a great deal of money because of the environmental problems it poses, and it also causes difficulties for the people who live in the area.
I would ask the Commission to address the issue of recycling tyres – perhaps not today, Commissioner – as this certainly is an area where there is a lot of illegal activity. We are not getting the value from the recycling of tyres that we could."@en1
