Group photo of participants at the EPA Inception workshop on hazardous waste, held in MonroviaThe Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has begun an exercise to identify preliminary gaps leading to the development of a sustainable inventory of hazardous and other wastes entering Liberia. The EPA, in collaboration with the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) recently ended a one-day inception workshop under the Basel Convention on hazardous waste in the capital, Monrovia.The workshop discussed several topics, including hazardous waste classification under the Basel Convention, Assessment of Liberia’s Legal and institutional framework for implementation and compliance. An EPA official, Randall Dobayou, told the Daily Observer that the initiative was intended to assess Liberia’s legal and institutional framework.The Basel Convention involves the control of transboundary movement of hazardous waste and their disposal and was adopted on 22nd of March 1989 by the conference of plenipotentiaries in Basel, Switzerland, according to the United Nations Environmental Facility.It was in response to a public outcry following the discovery, in the 1980s, in Africa and other parts of the developing world, of deposits of toxic waste imported from abroad.In a special message delivered at the start of the workshop, the Country Director of United Nations Development Program (UNDP) Dr. Pa Lamin Beyai spoke of the need for Liberia to create more awareness on the dangers of hazardous wastes.Dr. Beyai indicated that when environmental awareness on hazardous waste is weak and regulations are lacking, some organizations take advantage of the situation to seek cheap disposal options of hazardous wastes.“Putting in place a regulatory framework to properly monitor waste in Liberia is keen in the implementation of the Basel Convention,” Dr. Beyai said. Dr. Beyai called for a robust awareness strategy to be adopted in order to inform the public on hazardous wastes.He said to be able to accomplish this aim, everyone has a stake in the process. He pledged the UNDP’s support to the EPA and the Government of Liberia (GoL) to help them achieve their objective of the Basel Convention.Providing an overview of the workshop, Basel Focal Person and Assistant EPA Manager for Planning and Policy, Jefferson Nyandibo, said the overarching objective of the Basel Convention is to protect human health and the environment against the adverse effects of hazardous wastes.Mr. Nyandibo intimated that the inception workshop will put in place necessary formalities to conduct an inventory on hazardous wastes entering Liberia.Another topic discussed at the just-ended inception workshop was the introduction on the methodological guide to undertake national inventories and present a draft report on standards and procedures under the Basel Convention.The one-day workshop brought state actors, the private sector and international organizations together, including representatives from the World Bank, UNEP and the European Union (EU).Share this:Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)
1 Michael Appleton Michael Appleton has left his job as Oxford boss to take up the assistant managerial role at Leicester, the clubs have announced.The 41-year-old joined the U’s in July 2014, leading them to promotion from League Two in the 2015/16 season as well as two Football League Trophy finals.Appleton, who has signed a three-year deal at Leicester, will team up with Craig Shakespeare, who was also recently handed a three-year contract after keeping the Foxes in the Premier League.Appleton has also had spells in charge of Portsmouth and Blackburn, and knows Shakespeare well, having previously worked with him at West Brom’s Academy.And the Foxes manager, who took over from Claudio Ranieri in February with the then champions in danger of dropping down a tier, is looking forward to renewing their partnership.“I am delighted that the club have been able to bring a coach of Michael’s standing to Leicester City,” he told www.lcfc.co.uk.“Michael and I worked together at West Bromwich Albion and it quickly became clear that he possessed all the qualities and the integrity required to enjoy a successful coaching career.“During his transition from a player to a coach, before later becoming a manager, Michael has already achieved great success in the game. Over the course of his three years at Oxford United, he has been acknowledged by many as one of the most talented and knowledgeable coaches in English football.”Appleton, meanwhile, admits the lure of working in the Premier League was something he could not ignore.He said on Oxford’s website: “I would like to place on record my appreciation for all the support I have had from the board, staff, players and fans of Oxford United during my three years here.“I have been very happy at Oxford, and would squash any ill-informed speculation that my move has anything to do with the playing budget I’d been allocated, or any uncertainty around the club’s ownership. This could not be further from the truth.“The opportunity to move to a Premier League club was something I felt that I couldn’t turn down, which I hope fans will appreciate. I wish everyone at Oxford the best of luck for the future, and I feel sure that the foundations are there for the club to achieve more success in the coming years.”Oxford will now begin the search for a new manager and chairman Darryl Eales has moved to reassure fans the club remain as ambitious as ever.“We are all disappointed to see Michael go, but I fully understand that the chance to work in the Premier League was an opportunity he felt he couldn’t turn down,” Eales said.“Our priority now is to appoint a new manager who will continue our excellent progression and will build on our strong platform which will lead us towards our promotion to the Championship.“The timing is not exactly perfect, as it does hamper our recruitment plans in the short term but, once the new manager is appointed, we will move quickly to strengthen the squad even further.“The board would like to thank fans for their patience and understanding and for the countless messages of support. The future remains bright as we continue to build on the progress since 2014 and we should all look forward to an exciting and successful 2017/18 campaign.”

Donegal Sinn Féin TD, Pádraig Mac Lochlainn has demanded answers from the Minister for Health, Leo Varadkar on the reported costs of €110,000 every 13 weeks to recruit agency consultants.Deputy Padraig Mac LochlainnDeputy Mac Lochlainn had described the costs as “outrageous” and demanded clarification if these costs were coming from the hospital’s already much reduced budget.He said “For months now, I have sought clarification from the management of Letterkenny General Hospital about the challenges they face in recruiting consultants and non-consultant hospital doctors (NCHDs). Indeed, over recent years I have repeatedly raised the issue of how Letterkenny General Hospital is discriminated against in terms of the allocation of medical staff from our training colleges and the failure of the HSE to address this neglect”. The Sinn Fein TD added that inevitably the outworking of this failure is that Letterkenny General Hospital has to foot the bill for much more expensive agency staff.“I suspect that millions of euro is being spent unnecessarily every year just in LGH alone.“I have probed how much more they have to pay and I have not received the answers. Now I learn of these outrageous reports of tax payer’s money paying out in 13 weeks for a consultant what normally would be paid out per annum. In other words, four times more”.“I have today made representations to Minister Varadkar, seeking clarification if these costs were taken from the hospital’s budget and demanding a solution from the Minister. It is bad enough that the hospital has been so neglected but if these costs were taken from an already much reduced hospital budget, then it is just adding insult to injury.” MacLOCHLAINN DEMANDS ANSWERS ON “OUTRAGEOUS” HOSPITAL CONSULTANT’S BILL was last modified: September 24th, 2014 by StephenShare this:Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window)Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window)Click to share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)Click to share on Reddit (Opens in new window)Click to share on Pocket (Opens in new window)Click to share on Telegram (Opens in new window)Click to share on WhatsApp (Opens in new window)Click to share on Skype (Opens in new window)Click to print (Opens in new window) Tags:ConsultantsCostDeputy Padraig Mac LochlainnLetterkenny General Hospital
