The row over waste charges in Dublin has widened.

Bin Tax Campaign continues despite injunction Bin Tax Campaign continues despite injunction

Anti-waste charge protesters held a demonstration outside the Dublin City Council depot in Rathmines this morning, causing bin lorries there to be delayed by about an hour.

From today, the Council says it will not collect rubbish from householders who have not paid their charges in the Dublin 4, Dublin 6 and Dublin 6 west areas.

Meanwhile, a Fingal County Council bin lorry has been prevented from leaving a housing estate in Santry for a fifth consecutive day.

The protest continued despite a High Court injunction ordering campaigners not to obstruct waste collection in the area.
