    I have this idea floating around in my head the last few years that only involves you and the local councils that would totaily eliminate the use of bins and bin collections and stop this money grabbing of the people by this ****ty gubberment.

    If i had the money it would be up and running with in the year and would create jobs in this country and would be global in a few years.

    And what if you recycle and compost and have a fire (in an area where you can have a fire). So you only have on rubbish bag per month. Will they accept one receipt per month? Surely anyone flytipping could legally dump one bag a month just for the receipt?

    Maybe there'll be a few less people with stinking toxic smoke billowing out of their chimney on a hot and sticky July night with no breeze. Doesn't seem to occur to them that someone living within a half mile of them might want to open a window.
    I'm all for resistance to these charges, but I'm pissed off with people burning rubbish around here, it's been a real problem over the past few years. They're probably non-smokers too, who'd bitch and moan if some of my cigarette smoke wafted near them for a second. Yet here they are poisoning the whole neighbourhood to save a few quid.
    Not completely in favour of what the gov are doing here, but I'm enjoying the silver lining.

    Are they trying to burn the remains of their dinner or what?

    It's hard to tell just by smelling it, but if I had to guess I'd say old tires filled with dog shit.

    Was in town lately up around the Smithfields area and beyond and the place was horrendous with rubbish dumped at every corner. Plenty out here in Dun Laoghaire also. It is sickening.
    close your windows, clean it up if your that bothered, all this will still happen no matter what.

    My list of upcoming Privatisations/Concessions/sold off- Water, deffo. Healthcare-deffo(see Virgin in the UK) Prisons-Deffo, just take a little while because of the unions, more toll roads, Ambulance services, The ESB,deffo. Bord Gais, all traffic speed and parking enforcement(there already almost), all state debt collection(as they're so bad at it), most council services such as repairs, almost all natural resources, most Bus and train routes.

    Give it ten years and not one of these will be State run/owned, all will be hived off to the Private sector. All will produce a swiftly gobbled up short-term windfall, all will then cost both the state and the citizen far more for the forseeable future.
    Announced today on the 9 o'clock news. I wonder will the items on this list get ticked off even faster than I reckoned? Pretty likley.

    The dangerous thing is that most of our new laws and regulations lately are teating the people as criminals, you're now guilty until you prove your innocence. :mad:

    Having worn out all other means of extracting cash(o.k, not all, not even many, but some) our good leaders are now introducing a new whizz that Households who do not have an agreement with a licenced waste collection service(i.e a bin company) are to be fined. €75 snots on the spot, to be precise, with failure to pay that leading to a court appearance and a potential €1700.00 fine.

    So Ah, heading out at dusk to burn the papers? Scattering your weekly waste amongst the neighbours bins? Digging small holes in the local park and burying it? Them days are numbered. So, you need a compulsory T.V licence, you pay household Tax(or you will soon), you pay VAT on everything, you pay your taxes. You'll soon be paying for water. You pay for ESB, Gas, car tax, compulsory car insurance, expensive fuel for your house and vehicle. Your septic tank charges. And now you sign up to compulsory bin collection.

    I for one am beginning to think I might just give Endas account number for my wages to be paid into. It would save a lot of messing. What think ye?

    I don't know where you got that story from but I don't think it is new news. The bye laws have been in place for years, at least in Dublin.

    Its new news to me, if that's any good to you. That and the fact they now intend to enforce it.

    Where did you get the story from? I don't see anything on the Dublin City site announcing any change in policy. If it was a newspaper story they often "discover" something which has been the case for years and dress it up as if it is something new.

    If somthing has to be brand new to be posted in AH, will the last person out please turn on the alarm and off the lights. On another note, the article was about how inspectors were going to be starting calling on housholders to check if they had licenced waste collection in place. It might be older law, but it's getting implemented now.

    I presume the story comes from the new draft bye laws that, according to the Dublin City BID website (http://www.dublincitybid.ie/tag/waste-collection/) are due in April.
    If anyone can find where they are, or can explain why the last set of by laws are still in draft accounting to DCC's website http://www.dublincity.ie/WaterWasteEnvironment/Documents/DraftByeLawsCityCouncil.pdf that would be great.

    Thanks for that. The link I posted has the bye laws current since 2006.
