Waste Enforcement Regional Lead Authorities (WERLAs)

Is iad na trí Phríomh-Údarás Réigiúnacha Forfheidhmiúcháin Dramhaíola (PÚÁRFDanna) do Réigiúin an Deiscirt, an Oirthir agus Lár na Tíre, agus Chonnacht/Uladh Comhairle Contae Chorcaí, Comhairle Cathrach Bhaile Átha Cliath agus Comhairlí Contae Liatroma agus Dhún na nGall (le chéile), faoi seach.

The WERLAs have responsibility for coordinating waste enforcement actions within regions, setting priorities and common objectives for waste enforcement, ensuring consistent enforcement of waste legislation across the three existing waste management planning regions.

While local authority personnel will continue to be 'first responders' on the ground and to specific breaches of waste legislation, the WERLAs will facilitate more streamlining of the tasks currently undertaken in the waste enforcement area.
