"After getting touch with officials I welcome the decision by Mid Ulster council to supply brown bins to those residents who have been left in limbo since the time of the old Cookstown council.

"While every household was meant to receive a brown bin there where those households that missed out because they lived in hard to access areas but this will now be addressed in April.
