David Stanton (FG), Cork East

Since 2016, a boil water notice has been impacting east Cork and affecting 9,500 people. We reckon this costs each household approximately €500 per year. In the past, I raised the possibility of making some contribution towards the cost for people who have to buy or boil water for more than ten months of the year. It is really expensive. Will the Government give consideration to making a payment to households to help them with this cost?
