Dublin City Council has suggested limiting access to the Deposit Return Scheme (DRS) to people with are registered with a domestic waste collection company contract as a means of dealing with “opportunistic” bin scavenging.

The Council also suggest that with the DRS, there  had been “no significant difference” in total street sweepings collected in the city.

Janet Horner is a Councilor for Dublin North Inner City and Cathaoirleach for The Green Party. She joined Shane and Ciara to discuss the current issues the Deposit Return Scheme is bringing to the city.
