Finance Minister: Short-term fixes won't solve waste dump crisis or cut deficit
Finance Minister Yassine Jaber confirmed that temporary solutions for the New Jdeideh landfill issue will not resolve the Lebanese treasury's accumulated deficits. He explained that a sustainable solution is the one approved by law in Parliament, emphasizing the need to pass laws for municipal financing and outsourcing waste collection to private companies, with these companies also responsible for fee collection, thereby reducing pressure on the treasury. He also pointed out the importance of passing the legislation that addresses waste management to allow for the creation of a new cell in the landfill and to confront the crisis permanently.
