Written answers

I have no responsibility for, or role in relation to the provision or operation of water services infrastructure. From 1 January 2014 Irish Water is responsible for such matters.

However, I understand that Irish Water will utilise a wide range of contract models to deliver its programme of investments. These will be based on best industry practice and achieving value for money and will include the Design Build Operate (DBO) model where appropriate.
