Clare County Council is closer than ever to erecting CCTV at illegal dumping blackspots, with a commitment of March of this year.

However, despite this, the practice is still widespread.

The latest incident has seen bed boards, mattresses and several industrial plastic bags and refuse sacks discarded at Gallow's Hill in Meelick, which has been blighted by the behaviour.

The Cratloe Fianna Fáil Councillor Pat O’Gorman has been highlighting this on social media.

Pat O’Gorman spoke with Alan Morrissey on Wednesday's Morning Focus.
