Water Policy: Statements
Dail Éireann — 2022-11-09
============================================================

Seán Ó Fearghaíl (CC), Kildare South

With regard to a problem with Irish Water not responding to queries from you or anybody else, it is normal for me to disallow questions on operational matters. If Irish Water is not answering you and you let me know that, we will refer the questions to the Minister. I will not disallow the questions and will ask the Minister to answer. However, a public utility should not put the Minister in that position. Let the message go abroad that this is how we approach it.
