Bin bag ban dumped by Dublin City Council (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Plans to ban the use of bin bags by thousands of households across north Dublin from next month have been scrapped by Dublin City Council following protests against the move.

âThereâs nothing wrong with the bagsâ: inside Dublinâs latest waste war (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In the early years of the millennium, Dublinâs local authorities found themselves embroiled in waste wars. Hostilities started when households across the capital were, for the first time, charged for council bin collections. The move was deeply unpopular, and many refused to pay.
