Belfast City Council will not be collecting glass recycling for at least another month.
The council slipped out a brief announcement on its website at the end of August stating that the last review had failed to alter the suspension of the glass collection service. It is believed that the suspension is connected to staff shortage issues, and in particular a lack of drivers.
Glass waste has been building in homes since the suspension was announced on July 27, and residents will continue to build their own bottle banks until at least the end of September, when the council reviews the situation again.
