§ Mr. DonaldsonTo ask the Secretary of State for Northern Ireland what assessment she has made of the possibility of utilising the spare capacity at the incinerator at Duncrue in Belfast for the incineration of meat and bone meal and tallow required under the Over Thirty Month Scheme arising out of the BSE crisis. [85957]
§ Mr. Paul MurphyThe Department of the Environment Water Service incinerator at Duncrue, Belfast, has a capacity of three tonnes dry solids per hour and is currently operating at this throughput. There is therefore no spare capacity in the incinerator to accommodate the incineration of meat and bone meal and tallow from the Over Thirty Months Scheme.
