New figures prove bin tax is a double tax

category national | bin tax / household tax / water tax | opinion/analysis author Tuesday September 30, 2003 11:31author by stop the bin tax Report this post to the editors

Figures published in this weekends press prove the lie about the bin tax. It is not about protecting the environment or making those responsible for pollution pay.

Dublin City Council expects to collect €16.4million from householders this year and €10million from businesses. In other words, domestic households are paying in excess of 60% of the charges for producing less than 2% of the waste. If the government implemented the pollutor pays principle in a fair and equitable manner, then the cost per household would be €8 (eight) per year. In other words each household in the Dublin city area is expected to subsidise the business community by over €240 per year. What a rip-off!!!! And they claim its not about double taxation.
