CCPC Study into Household Waste Collection Market

November 23, 2017

In early October, the CCPC formally commenced a study into the household waste collection market in Ireland. This followed a formal request from An Tánaiste and Minister for Business, Enterprise, and Innovation Frances Fitzgerald TD arising out of a request from the Minister for Communications, Climate Action and Environment, Denis Naughten TD.

The CCPC’s study will include an analysis of the evolution of the household waste collection market in Ireland; an examination of the operation of waste markets elsewhere and an economic assessment of the market. Following this analysis the CCPC will consider what, if any, changes are required to the current consumer protection and regulatory regimes.

The CCPC has commenced an extensive process of engagement which will include operators, trade bodies and other relevant stakeholders to gain further information and insights about the sector. The CCPC will seek input from consumers as part of the process.
