Food businesses across Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown in south Dublin could face fines of up to €500 for supplying single-use plastics to customers.

This would include takeaways and supermarkets.

So on Thursday evening's edition of the Hard Shoulder invited an expert on to the show, Mindy O’Brien, coordinator at VOICE to tell him how it might work, as well as Domenico Rea, owner and family member with the Miami Cafe in Dun Laoghaire, who told Ivan how this plan might affect his business.
