Sir, – I couldn’t agree more with Pat Mullen (Letters, December 13th), when he suggests that the practice of charging to enter recycling centres should be dropped. I pay for household collections of domestic waste and recycling bins.

There is an entry charge of €4 each time. It’s difficult to reconcile this with the campaign for a deposit return scheme. – Yours, etc,
BERNADETTE O’REILLY,
Clonakilty,
