Fines for littering and dog fouling will be increased by €100 from the beginning of September.
On-the-spot fines will rise from €150 to €250.
The move is aimed at deterring littering and illegal dumping. Local authorities will be encouraged to improve enforcement.
There will also be €3 million investment in anti-dumping initiatives across all councils.

🌍Earth Day 2026 – Celebrating Community, Nature & Hope 🌍
This Earth Day (Wednesday 22nd April), we’re taking a moment to reflect on an incredible year for Ballymun Biodiversity Action Group 💚
Together, we’ve:�🌱 Expanded habitats by planting trees and shrubs with support from Pocket Forest�🪵 Built a dead hedge and bug hotel to support wildlife�💧 Created a new pond�🌼 Helped bring pollinator-friendly planting to new spaces�🌾 Launched the first-ever Seed Library in Dublin North West with Ballymun Library�🏫 Worked with students from Trinity Comprehensive School & Businesses on Better Ballymun Day to green the Ballymun Industrial Estate�🏢 Partnered with the Aspen building to grow biodiversity in student living spaces�🗣 Shared knowledge through talks with community groups�🍓 Hosted jam and chutney workshops to promote food-saving skills and reduce waste
Every step we’ve taken shows what’s possible when a community comes together for nature 🌿
This Earth Day, we’re reminding everyone that even one small action matters. One powerful step we can all take?�🚫 Stop using toxic chemicals in our gardens — protect the pollinators that keep our food system thriving.
We’re so proud of what we’ve achieved together — and we’re just getting started 🌍💚

Winning moments! Great finish to the league for our U18 girls, two back to back wins vs our close neighbours @santryvolleyball . Well done to all our girls, who put a great effort in all through the season! Winning moments feel so good, but it’s the moments that matter we know they only come from hard work and knowing how to pick ourselves up, how to lose too, every session and every match we are learning, we are growing together. Well done and thank you to all our U18 players who gave it everything and to our amazing coaches @michelleftanner@sylviakamila28 and our senior coaches who some of the girls also train/play with @71jeffking@kevin.kavanagh.524 and all our officials and supporters! ⭐️#welovevolleyball #beactive #vly #volleyball #womeninsportire @hermoves.ie@hersport.ie@ballymun_health_fit_festival@trinitycomp1@volleyballireland @
