Summary
Concerns are growing in East Clare following another incident of illegal dumping in the Kilkishen area, where a large quantity of household waste was discovered—some of which appears to have been deliberately set on fire at the roadside. Kilkishen Tidy Towns has strongly condemned the incident, saying burning rubbish is “never the answer” and highlighting the environmental and community impact of illegal dumping. The issue comes amid wider calls across Clare for stronger enforcement, with discussions ongoing about the potential use of CCTV in known dumping blackspots. To discuss what happened in Kilkishen, the impact on the local community, and what more can be done to tackle illegal dumping, Alan Morrissey was joined by Olivia King of Kilkishen Tidy Towns and O’Callaghan’s Mills Fine Gael Councillor Conor Ryan.
