Kildare County Council has been asked to take back the domestic waste collection service from private companies.
But the council’s Director of Services is against the idea.
The matter is to go for consideration to the council’s Environmental Strategic Policy Committee (SPC).
After debate at the January 25 meeting of the council, the proposer, Cllr Noel Connolly, said he was surprised with the support from some members.
At the January 25 meeting of the council, Cllr Connolly proposed that the council recognises that domestic waste collection should be in the control and ownership of local authorities and that a consistent service should be offered to all homes county wide, including glass and organic waste collection.
