Dublin City Council play Scrooge on it's most vulnerable citizens

category dublin | bin tax / household tax / water tax | news report author Tuesday December 22, 2009 10:15author by Paula Geraghtyauthor email mspgeraghty at yahoo dot ie Report this post to the editors

Video report from Bin Tax protest at Dublin City Council's Estimates meeting. The estimates copper fasten the drive to make the poorest in society pay for the running of Dublin City.

Fianna Fail introduced the Budget attacking the public sector, the poorest in Irish society and public service users.
It was the turn of Labour and Fine Gael to add to the burden of pensioners, carers and those on social welfare and other government supports by voting for the Council Estimates. This got rid of the Bin Tax waiver scheme, increased waste charges for residents by 5% and reducing commercial rates by 2%.

A protest was called at short notice outside Dublin City Hall.

See and hear Cllrs Louise Minihan (Ind), Cieran Perry, (Ind), Brid Smith and Joan Collins (both from People Before Profit) give their opinions on what was happening and what Dublin residents can do.
