Westport based Fianna Fáil councillor Brendan Mulroy hit out this week at a case of dumping at the recycling facilities at the Point in Westport.
Cllr Mulroy in a social media post this week called it "disgraceful behaviour"; his post said: "I have contacted the council this morning to ensure that the person or people who dumped this eyesore are prosecuted.
"Absolutely not on and disgraceful behaviour. We have fantastic council employees and volunteers in our community Westport Tidy Towns who do a fantastic job in keeping our town in a pristine condition and then you have this idiotic behaviour."
